Otto v5M+ DIY Mod Kit Overview

  • Newly Redesigned Structure – Features the proven V5 module combined with JLF-style components for improved performance and reliability.
  • Universal Mounting Plate – Compatible with Sanwa JLF, Hori HAYABUSA, and Seimitsu MS mounting configurations, providing greater installation flexibility.
  • Wide Switch Compatibility – Uses short-hinge lever switches and a PCB switch design compatible with Seimitsu LS-33, LS-55, LS-58, LS-60, and LS-62 series joysticks.
  • Compact Design – Optimized for a smaller overall footprint, helping save valuable internal space inside your arcade stick enclosure.

Required Parts to complete this build.

Generally if you have SANWA DENSHI JLF or JLX joystick, you would need the following parts from them:

  • JLF/JLX Mounting Plate (LS-56 Mounting Plate works too, but it's not considered universal where the mounting holes are positioned)
  • JLF/JLX Shaft or Compatible Equivalent
  • JLF/JLX Spring Boot 
  • JLF/JLX Spring or equivalent
  • E-Clip (JLF/JLX)
  • TPMA or X-TPMA pcb assembly

Note: The kit we currently offer is compatible with the LS-56 Panasonic switch PCB assembly, which is the former version (two years or more previous from today).  You can easily identify this version by the color of the gate, which is white.  

The Seimitsu LS-56 models that use the current OMRON PCB assembly are not compatible with this kit.  The gate color on this is black.  

Alternatively, you can use individual microswitches (shorter hinged as noted in description overview above), which we will make available shortly as an add-on accessory to this product once they arrive.
