It’s been 24 years since Atari introduced the yoke controller for Star Wars. It’s been well over a decade since Atari last produced parts for this controller and there’s no viable alternative yoke controller marketed today. Our reproduction model is based on the original Atari design and is, with only a few minor improvements, identical to the original part. We offer complete assembled reproduction controllers, rubber bumpers, springs, flange bearings, thumb buttons, triggers, shafts, frame pieces, electronic parts and more. You can order a complete controller or parts to maintain or upgrade your existing controller. All parts are 100% interchangeable with earlier OEM controllers. Finally, a real solution for your broken or missing flight yokes!
Steel frame with precision laser cutouts and powder coating, steel shafts with zinc plating, hard anodized black aluminum trigger and thumb button. Upgraded Delrin gears, mil-spec potentiometers, precision springs and upgraded handles. OEM flange bearings and OEM retaining rings. All parts meet or exceed original Atari spec. All components are 100% interchangeable with original yoke controller. Note: Does NOT come with artwork.
