*Pcb fully functional as intended
I will revisit this project later. I'll make some fixes on the PCB and Release the PCB Layout.
If I do Redo the LED driver and add some more features. I might sell some PCBS after that, But as it stands for now. I Personally Don't feel like I have changed too much from the original CGS Joystick Controller Design.
----Problems----
-Hard to solder onto ground plane due too thermal conductivity of ground plane(Noobie's Bewares)
-Fix PCB LED layout (switch X and Y axis with each other)
-Fix PCB LED and capacitor foot print too more spacious
-FIX PCB Layout (add OFFSET panel Control too PCB Mask layer)
--Fixes--
-Find Stand offs with proper clearance in metal variant(only pvc ones have proper hight for proper stacking.
-add diodes or some ability to prevent LEDS from getting lfo or oscillator signal effecting LEDs brightness
Later Revisions Features
-Redo LED driver circuit so it is current controller making the led incantation linear (Doesn't Cut too 0 Brightness at 500mv)
-Add optional always inverted output header
-Add +/-8v LED Digital Display Voltmeter
Red for +Positive voltage
Blue for -Negative voltage
I would Like too. Thank Kristian Blåsol for the mention on his channel. He has a great series called modular in a week with great projects. Learned Quite a bit from his videos here is His Video On CV controllers/Joysticks
