I wanted a hat switch for the power management triangle in Star Citizen. 

This mechanism can accommodate any configuration of 1 to 5 buttons inside a 19mm x 27mm (d x h) cylinder.

It fits onto the custom grips: see my other designs.

Options:

  • Many button shapes.
  • 4-direction hat + 1 press button.
  • 3-direction hat + 1 press button. For example in a Mi-24 home cockpit or to manage the power distribution in Star Citizen:
  1. Power to weapons
  2. Power to shields
  3. Power to engines
  4. Press: Reset power
  • 2-direction hat + 1 press button.
  • or just 1 press button.

Materials:

  • 1 to 5x mini press button 6x6x4.3mm.

Assembly:

  1. See the pictures, they are worth 1000 words.
