    Up to now nobody has managed to find a replacement thrumbwheel roller switch that will work. All the switches on the market use a 5v supply, the Cat switch requires an 8v supply. The switch is not sold as a separate part and it doesn't seem as though there are used joystick handles on the market for that reason.
