Dual Strike meets Fight Pad

Pic Tutorial for connecting a xbox360 Fight Pad to Dual Strike.

Dual Strike is a PS3 / PC GameController Board for home made / DIY gaming equipment like Arcade Sticks or Cabs.

Dual Strike is complete solderless for supporting PS3 or PC. Connect your buttons and sticks directly to the screw terminals.

But Dual Strike can do more. It had an extra connector for supporting xbox360 consoles.

Here are some pics. More detailed step to step tutorial will follow.
