So I was trying to figure out how a joystick works without looking at any schems or doing any research and this is what I've come up with. Two potentiometers. the top is the x axis and the bottom is the y axis. Linked together mechanically I believe would make a functional joystick. What do you guys think? Also I was wondering if there was a way to do it using capacitance that would be more efficient instead of having constant current through the pots. Looking forward to any comments. - Jolly
