Ultimarc UltraStik 360 Restrictor Plate Kit - Octagonal

The Ultrastik software controls the mode of the joystick, but you can add a physical octagonal limit with this kit.

Note that these rear-mounting restrictor plates are designed to be a one-time install, they are not suitable for regular removal and installing.

The 360 Flight Stick version is not designed for use with any restrictors as it is intended to be an analog stick.

Most people will find the UltraStik 360 to be perfect for all gaming applications including analog and any variation of digital, but some people may prefer a different "feel" to the stick with a mechanical limit on it's movement. This kit includes 1 octagonal plate that can be left in place and used in either 4 or 8-way mode with no need to move the plate between each mode. Octagonal restrictors are commonly used on Sanwa joysticks and have a popular following.

Note that fitting the restrictors requires some dismantling so these are a semi-permanent fixture.

Installation Instructions

• Remove the 4 screws holding the PCB to the joystick body.
• Remove the 4 screws securing the support brackets to the body. (you will need a screwdriver which reaches through the holes in the top of the brackets)
• Place the restrictor plate over the holes and secure using the silver-colored pillars. You might need to use one of the thumb-nuts to help turn the pillar.
• Re-fit the PCB and secure with the four white thumb-nuts.
• In the UltraMap software, go into "options" and tell the software which type of restrictor is fitted.

You can see that, using the test feature in UltraMap, the stick movement is still full-scale even though a restrictor is fitted.
