towmater #1 Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) Well there it is. I've used it to replace the broken one in my controller. STL's attached. No Warranty! coleco controller thing.zip Edited March 30, 2015 by towmater 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mightywiz #2 Posted March 30, 2015 so how well does it work in the controller? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
towmater #3 Posted March 30, 2015 YMMV, depending on your printer's idiosyncrasies. In my case, it works fine with a light-touch, but if you press too hard North, for example, the diagonals will end up pressing as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tron Unit #4 Posted March 30, 2015 Interestingly enough, I've found that the SAC's work just fine with this white octopus piece removed but it would be nice if someone were to make these available for those who want to keep their controllers working stock.

Tron Unit #6 Posted November 26, 2019 Anybody know where I can get some 3D printed SAC nylon replacement controller pads like the ones above? Saw a post somewhere recently somebody was selling them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdmccrigt #7 Posted December 4, 2019 I just bought a couple of SACs and one needs this. I can try to print it but in PLA, not the original Nylon. From what towmater described, it may be too stiff depending on what material was used (PLA is stiffer than Nylon). May need to be trimmed down a bit. I can play with it and let you know.

jdmccrigt #8 Posted December 5, 2019 I took towmater's model (thank you!) and tweaked it to give more flexibility in the arms. And added a hole for the screw. Still need to do a fit-up & see how well it works. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tripletopper #11 Posted December 31, 2020 Two things about the super actio controller. On one of my four controllers, winky could go north, Winky could go west , but Winky could not go Northwest. Is that a sign to replace the octopus piece? The second thing is I remember best electronics making forever 5200 buttons with a mod that always make sure your buttons connect. I'm surprised no one's tried that for the clickovision super extra controllers some sort of mod that make the buttons work better. I heard to adequately clean them you have to take them apart real bad and for the price of hiring someone to take them apart I'd rather have someone mod them so that regular maintenance cleanings are no longer needed.
