As far as I know it's the same joystick but you will be very hard pushed to find one. They are rare. Also the potentiometers have a bypass built into them. There are no modern replacements that I know of for the potentiometers..

Hi group - does anyone know if the poly800 and poly61 share similar joystick assemblies, or of a mechanically compatible (or at least modifiable) replacement - I bought my p61 with a broken X/Y rocker and I'd love to replace it.

Cheers
