Phreakmods Cerberus PS4/PS3/PC Joystick PCB (Partial Connector Version)

With such a fitting name, Phreak Mods all new dual-mod joystick PCB for modern MadCatz XBOX360 joysticks allows you add a firmware-upgradable and easy-to-install Sony Playstation 4™ (via 1.10 firmware update, 8-minute timeout reset), PS3™ and PC solution to most Xbox360 joysticks.

The name Cerberus was derived from Greek's and Roman mythology Kerebos - a three-headed hound.  Specifically, the assembled PCB is designed with three "faces" for use by the novice enthusiast.  

The advanced face contains all of the critical parts, centered to the PCB itself and accessible via soldered wiring. Experienced builders can actually cut this portion from the PCB, rendering it the size of a quarter.  The advanced face is also compatible with a wide variety of MadCatz TE joysticks, including the original TE Round 1 and 2 joysticks and variants. This face can be installed in a wide variety of additional Xbox 360 joysticks, such as the Razer® Xbox360 joystick, HRAP: VX, Fighting Stick VX, and more. Once more, the small size of the advanced face makes it possible to install in a gamepad. With firmware upgrades to add even more capabilities, the possibilities for dual-modding are incredible!  Please see our photo gallery for pictures of non-connector PCB.
