Experiences with the Hori N Hayabusa?

[⎛⎝ Kupo ⎠⎞]

Hey, do any of you have experience with this stick?
I am looking into getting a new Arcade Stick, and right now it's between the Nacon Daija and the Hori N Hayabusa.
However...

The issue is that the Nacon Daija is the first Arcade Stick from Nacon ( I think ), and whilst I really like everything else about it I think that it has some bad input lag as can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJ_hH80hrvw ...
Everything else about it looks great from what I can see, and I really like the design.
But that input lag is really worrisome and pretty bad, and their customer support is supposed to suck so there's not much hope for it getting resolved.

In the case of the Hayabusa, the problem that I've heard is that the joystick has problems with opposite inputs? That when you let it go and let it return to neutral it sometimes gives the opposite input because of the wiggling of the stick.
I've heard a bit mixed opinions in regards to how common this is and whether tightening the stock spring works or not ( I even heard some say that a 2lb sring replacement didn't help ).
Do any of you have experience with this, is it true and affect you?
I don't want to replace the joystick with a Sanwa or whatever, I can't afford that atm.
I just want to buy one that works with the stock parts and not have to replace a bunch of stuff on day 1.

I just want a stick that works and is reliable.
And these two are the two sticks in the price range that I can afford and in the area where I live.
But both of them have two flaws that seem quite big to me :/.

A Sanwa JLF can be replaced for around $18-24. The Hayabusa has gone through some changes in the last year or so. I would try and get the newest version of the stick if you can find it.

Stay away from any stick that features Input lag and poor customer support.

I had the RAP N and I think you're talking about overshooting neutral and registering the opposite input? If so, then yes, that can happen but I never had that problem during actual fights. You really have to pull the stick fast and hard and let go of it for that to happen and even then not always. With the sort of grip I'm using (or used when I actually played Tekken actively) it wasn't a problem. One of my chars was 2d, I played a couple others and the RAP N didn't disappoint.

It's a sturdy, well-made stick with good quality parts and great tasteful design. Can recommend wholeheartedly.

I have the RAP N too and there are no issues with it as far as I know. Never had trouble with unwanted opposite directions or input lag. It's a very solid stick even with all stock parts, imo.

I am thinking that maybe it's just people being very violent with it who have problems xD.

Hey Palico, so, which stick have you bought in the end man?

The original Hayabusa came with the Fighting Edge Stick on PS3/360 and had a ton of input lag. It is the PCB Hori used not the actual Hori Hayabusa stick that caused the lag. Brook Ultimate Board has the least lag for a PCB, the Hayabusa is a solid enough stick although I prefer a Sanwa JLF with Cherry Switches and an LS32 spring. I added an extended shaft too it recently and enjoy it a lot. Then again i'm into modding and have seimitsu, hayabusa, and sanwa sticks. Using the Brook Board for a PCB here.

Goodluck!
