Quickshot joystick not shooting
Posted: Fri Nov 24, 2017 8:05 pm
Hi all
I recently acquired a Quickshot joystick which doesnt’t shoot. Well, it did for a few minutes and then gave up.
I opened it up and we have this (yes it needs a clean...):-
It looks like pressing fire pushes the what looks like plastic sheets down onto the contact which makes a circuit. You can see the two sheets sat on the main body. They both have holes in them from years of use. They also both feel like crinkly sellotape!
Is there anything I can replace them with? My current plan is to stick some tape on top of them and see what happens...
Thanks
