PFS5: AEGIS2MX Panel

The Panzer Fight Stick 5 MX Panel Kits are a completely new way to build Fight Sticks. Buttons are no longer required! Well, not in the traditional sense. at least The *MX series of panels designed uniquely for the Panzer Fight Stick 5 removes the standard arcade button and replaces it with hot swappable Cherry MX compatible switches and key caps. This provides overall cost savings and maximum customizability.

Button Layout Specifics.

Optimized for modern fighting games.

Construction: The traditional panel, bezel, and stabilizer plate found in the ABMX are combined and machined out of a single piece of aluminum as a single unit. This maximizes strength, minimizes switch wobble, and integrates the panel and bezel into a single setup. Compared to the Panzer 4 ABMX kit with bezel - this is cheaper when viewed with a 1:1 lens ($115). Since the panel is a single piece of machined aluminum, assembly is as simple as screwing the PCB to the panel and inserting switches.

Cost Savings: The AEGIS2MX has 15 inputs in total (4x Directionals, 4x Punch, 4x Kick, TP Click, R3, and L3) - that's 15 buttons you don't have to buy, or in another sense - $102 you aren't spending on buttons such as the Seimitsu Alutimo. MX switches, while not included, can be had for a very low price.

Customizability: The Panzer 5 MX panels are easier and compatible with a wide variety of switches. The Kailh hot swap sockets used on the MX PCB allow use of both three and five pin switches. Swapping switches is easy - you can fix a switch or change it out in a matter of seconds. No clumsy, difficult buttons to disassemble and disconnect!
