## Description

desertcart.com: qanba Gravity Mechanical Shafts Arcade Joystick Silent Lever Joystick Original(JOV8S) : Video Games

Review: An excellent lever that feels different than what you are used to. Highly recommend. - The Qanba JOV8S is an excellent joystick lever. I’ve already become a big fan of the Qanba Gravity KT adjustable buttons, and I’d recently bought a Qanba Obsidian 2 Fight Stick, which I discovered came shipped with a Sanwa JLF lever and Sanwa Denshi buttons. So I did the Qanba conversion on my Qanba stick and I’ve got to say that I am very impressed with the Qanba JOV8S. I found the loosest and medium tension springs felt too loose, but the 3rd heavy tension spring feels about the same tension as a JLX2 with an EX 1.5 lb spring. The medium 1.5x tension spring that’s included feels about the same tension as the JLX2 with the stock .9 lb spring. This joystick has very good snap back to neutral, the pivot is greased so it’s very smooth with no friction and it’s very smooth. The Omron switches are very forgiving, and while the JOV8S feels spongier and softer than a JLX2, it’s still snappy and very accurate. It’s excellent for players who like to ride the gate. This lever comes with a harness, a round gate, octagonal gate, and ships with a square gate installed. It also comes with 3 springs of differing tensions as well as a nice ball-top, dust protectors and lever sleeves. It will drop directly into the Qanba Obsidian 2 and the Hori Fight Stick Alpha. I have tried using other actuators and have not had any luck with any of them, they mess up the feel and also don’t allow the stick to work properly but the stock actuator feels good. It feels about like an 11.5 mm actuator in a JLX2. Sanwa shafts also work fine with these so you can use a lightweight titanium Sanwa shaft to get faster SnapBack. I should also note that this joystick is very quiet, just like the buttons. My favorite thing about this particular lever is that it is every bit as responsive and tight as the JLX2 (with the heavy spring) and it’s not hard to get used to if you’re used to the JLX2, but it’s got its own distinct feel that is completely different than Sanwa or Semitsu but it’s every bit as formidable and easy to use. I have no idea why Qanba ships the Obsidian 2 with Sanwa hardware, because Qanba makes some top-tier buttons and levers. These levers won’t be for everyone, but if you’re tired of using the same Sanwa or Semitsu sticks and want something that is different and just as good, then you’ll probably enjoy using this lever. I like it just as much as my modded JLX2, only the Qanba didn’t need any modding out of the box. I just use a lightweight shaft because it’s my preference. Either way, I highly recommend the JOV8S.
Review: If you're looking for a great silent stick look no further! - I've been using arcade sticks for a little over 10 years and I've grown a custom to the clickiness and the clackiness of the buttons and also the lever. Really I decided to get these because my wife was going to buy me a whole new stick for my birthday and that was so sweet of her but I decided I would use that money on her instead and let me just get a little upgrade. What I expected was a little upgrade what I ended up getting is so far beyond that. Usually when I get a lever I'm changing something in it to actuator the tension spring the ball itself. With this I did not touch anything and it felt amazing straight out the box. Not only is it amazing to play with because of the silent design I can now enjoy my games while my wife is taking a nap or sleeping. It has literally helped my marriage. Is it silent yes but let's talk about how it feels to play. Directions to crisp I have yet to feel like I've missed an input. Medium throw range (the time that the stick moves before it triggers the direction) Also comes with pin connectors and square,octa and circle gates 👀 it's honestly for any instal that will fit! Absolutely worth the price. Hori Rapv4 pictured with matching gravity buttons 🔥

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work in the victrix pro fs?**
A: Compatible, this is the same 5pin universal interface as traditional Joystick.

**Q: Can I put this in the Drone (not the Drone2)?**
A: Yes, it is compatible, but you need to have a dual-ended 5Pin Cable connection.

**Q: Hello, is this stick compatible with the Hori FS Alpha? Are there height issues?**
A: It should be. Just be careful as I believe the pin out on the stick is different that the standard Sanwa JLF sticks (it looks flipped 180°) but I can't confirm this right now. Size and fit size it is compatible though.

**Q: Does this work with qanba dragon**
A: this is compatible with dragon.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Slick joystick
*by M***Y on May 10, 2025*

Very different from any other lever I’ve ever used. First 2 I purchased were DOA. There was a disconnect on the 5 pin. Once I got a good working one, it’s pretty cool. Takes getting used to, but these are very cool. Even better combined with Qanba gravity buttons, or Crown buttons. All silent setup.
