Modify joy con to "pro con"? #68

Would it be possible to hot rod a joy con to improve stick, range, disconnects and ergonomics? I imagine replacing the joy con stick with the pro controller Alps stick might be just drop in. Perhaps some antenna tweaking could improve reception and a custom designed grip would improve ergonomics for larger hands. Would still be nice to be able to attach to the switch, but not strictly necessary. Then charging could be Qi or USB C.

Later revision joy cons do not seem to suffer from any range issues.

I don't have a Pro controller in front of me and I'm pretty sure the analog stick on the pro controller won't work on a joy con. I could be wrong.
