The Elecfreaks Joystick Kit is a compact console controller specially designed for the micro:bit, combining a 4-direction joystick, four configurable buttons, and built-in features such as a buzzer and a vibration motor, offering a full sensory experience when interacting with programs. Its ergonomic shape, with a methacrylate handle, is designed for small hands, providing a comfortable grip even during extended educational use sessions.

This controller easily integrates with other kits from the brand, such as Cutebot or TPBot, allowing it to function as a wireless remote control via Bluetooth radio or cables, depending on the project. The board includes GVS, I²C, SPI, and UART connectors, which facilitates connection to various modules and sensors, significantly expanding control possibilities in robotics or automation projects. One of its main advantages is “plug and play”: just insert the micro:bit, install the “joystick:bit” extension in Microsoft MakeCode or Python, and start using it immediately.

The Joystick also stands out for its technical details: the X and Y axes connect to pins P1 and P2, the buttons to P12–P15, the buzzer to P0, and the vibration motor to P16. It is powered by two AAA batteries or directly from the micro:bit, and features a power switch, automatic shutdown when disconnecting the micro:bit, and a thin and lightweight board, more manageable than traditional joysticks. Thanks to these characteristics, it is ideal both for teaching programming and electronics fundamentals and for developing playful, artistic, or competitive projects in school environments and STEM labs.

The Joystick enhances Elecfreaks projects on micro:bit by acting as a versatile remote control, provides haptic and sound feedback, and offers expandable connections through multiple protocols, making it a solid tool for interactive learning and technical experimentation.
