However, if the guts of a cheap USB pad are transferred wholesale into the Competition Pro joystick, then henceforth the joystick will report itself as a cheap USB pad with more than half the buttons/quickfire options disabled.

To retain the character of the Competition Pro while eliminating the lag introduced by the cheap USB chip they have used, requires the transplanting of the USB interface alone. While this may also be just as practicable as changing the entire circuit, I wish to make certain that the interface is compatible to avoid converting a set of useful input devices into a pile of toxic waste.

When I have a positive announcement to make (one way or the other), I will deliver it on this thread.

I need time, not luck, to get this right.

I got my cheap pads at Woolworths before they collapsed. You can guess how cheap they were.
