5.4 Handling of MicroJoyStick
MicroJoysticks are typically shipped in plastic trays that are designed with individualized
compartments for each MicroJoystick. Since the trays are designed to protect each MicroJoystick
from damage (the base of the MicroJoystick is hard enough to scratch the conductive traces),
please try to incorporate these trays into your inventory and manufacturing process. When
installing tails or handling the MicroJoysticks, keep units separate from each other to help prevent
damage to the conductive traces.
