I just walked in and bought a bunch of them for dirt cheap.

It's a bit tricky putting together the handle once it's apart and the spring can get put in the wrong position which takes the proper resistance out for the "twisty" axis but I didn't bother fixing it because I have rudder pedals and don't need it anyway.

If I´m not wrong these switches are tactile switches model B5 from Oron, and yes, the handle is a pain to reasamble.

You still can find this great joystick second hand in amazon and ebay. The discontinued production line was one of the bad decisions of Uncle Bill.
