It looks like a G84 crashed into an arcade controller. ML switches, the keyboard interface looks like AT. Price isn't ridiculous either.

Pad-printed G84-4100 PCB stuffed into a box along with some other stuff.
Visibly dirty on the X/C and arrows.

I got the AID-4. I like ML switches, and I like odd chimera boards. (not the GH user's boards, the literal meaning of "chimera")

Nice, but I was little surprised nobody tried to make an offer. Post some pics when you get it, let us know if you can get the joystick working!

Alright, I've got the "AID-4" and have taken some pics of the insides. Not a lot of surprises, but very solid case and interesting choice of equipment. The joystick is the real mystery, and getting it working might be tricky.

More pics in the same album.
It appears that the joystick uses optical sensors. This joystick is VERY nice.
