About this Product

Joystick:bit V2 is a gamepad based on the micro:bit. It contains a 4-direction joystick and 4 undefined (customizable) buttons. At the same time, it enhances the gaming and remote control experience with its onboard buzzer and vibration motor. Specially designed for primary and middle school students with ergonomics in mind, its small and slim shape allows children to hold the gamepad comfortably. It is thinner, lighter, and easier to manage and transport compared to traditional PS2-style joysticks. It serves as a versatile remote controller compatible with various ELECFREAKS robots, including the Smart Cutebot, TPBot, Ring:bit V2 Car, and 32-in-1 Wonder Building Kit.
