ControlsCabinet inputs

Trackball horizontal and vertical movement, Shot Type, Left, Flyover, Right, Start, coins and operator controls. Trackball direction and response can be configured in Arcade IO.

Force feedbackNot applicable

Championship III uses a trackball rather than racing-wheel force feedback.

Lamps & lightingRuntime-dependent cabinet outputs

Cabinet output availability depends on the selected runtime and connected board. Check your game and board setup before relying on physical lamp behaviour.

Force feedback needs a compatible feedback device. Physical lighting needs a connected board with the appropriate outputs. Use the original game's test menu to check your mapping.
