Qanba Obsidian 2 Easy Removable USB Cable Mod - No Cut - No Soldering
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- Today I'll show how to easily mod a Qanba Obsidian 2 to have a removable USB Cable. Honestly, this couldn't be any easier. You'll just need a USB C Female to USB Female Adapter and thread it through the holes already on the Arcade Stick. Leave a bit popping out so you can easily attach the cable that leads to your console or PC, and when you are traveling or storring the stick, you can just tuck the adapter into the Cable storage compartment. Hope you enjoy the vid! Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.

You just fixed the only complaint I had about my obsidian 2....genius
why not just leave the cable wrapped in the side and just add the extension poking out?
That 200iq play lol
You're right. He's gone one too many steps lol.
+10
genius. its a shame qanba couldn't think of that
Does this create any input delay?
it certainly does
"The cable adds a very small latency. It's much less than 1/1000 of the computer's latency. You will never see the difference. Latency is cause by cables that run hundreds of miles." AKA you will never in your life ever tell a difference lmao you're gucci!
What an effortless mod. I don't mind some of my sticks not having removable cables but I'm definately gonna try this so some of my better sticks
someone in my group took a female to female type A to type C adapter, moded the adapter to fit in the hole for the cable and voila detachable usb cable. what he did was just shaved the surrounding plastic to fit the hole and probably some glue if needed
this mod actually works on any arcade stick. I am using it on my hori alpha coz I am sick of tying cables every time I play. With this, I can just use my existing usb type c cable hooked up on my pc so controller swap between arcade stick and dualsense become so easy. I don't notice any latency whatsoever while playing street fighter 6 on my pc. :p
The the purple cable you are using is it usb-c to usb or straight usb-c? Can you please provide link for purple cable.
Thanks
Nice, i made something similar on the Hori FSA
Who remembers when Briar Rabbit played Destiny? Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end
Unrelated but for $300 I would expect metal standoffs for the screws and a removable cable. I was interested in this stick but now I'm seeing more internals I feel like that is such a waste of money, you are spending $300 for a plastic box, is it durable plastic? Yeah but if you ever need to repair it or mod it you better not want to do it often because plastic screw holes won't last long. I've purchased a $150 hitbox made out of plexi and metal and the guy knew that using metal standoffs is a much better investment in long term durability. Also removable USB C.
I'm sure this stick will last you years and years if you are happy with all the included parts but I just think it's time for these companies to start looking at what DIY sellers are doing.
Oh nice. I’m planning to pick up the Hori FSA, but not a fan of how the cable compartment is from what I’ve seen.
Old school... wrap around and done!
You showed the connector and I was thinking, "What the hell does this guy think he's going to do with that?" and then as soon as you started pulling the cable into the case a light bulb went off in my head and I said out loud, "OH!" That's thinking outside the box... er, uh... inside the box, I guess.
I have one of these on the way. This is bad ass. Thanks!
Did you receive it? How is it? Prons and cins?
I did. I've used it a lot. It definitely feels like a premium stick, regardless of what some people may say. It's heavy, sits in place well, and the inputs are flawless and smooth. Tons of real estate if you want a long base for your lap or table.
Is it worth $300? Probably not. I would've felt way better around the $225 mark, especially considering the 1st Obsidian had lights and stuff that gave it a more premium look. That being said I don't feel ripped off. It's a great stick.
On another note, instead of going with a disconnecting wire like in this vid, I simply spun it up inside the case to a short length that worked for my situation and called it a day :P.
@satsunoryu thanks bro.
This stick cost 450$ in ny country.
It's too expensive so i bought a Hori f Alhpa fighting stick.
I will receive it on Wednesday
I think that'll be a good purchase. I used a Hori stick for a while, and they are good. Stick is softer and the buttons are much more sensitive, but as long as you aren't heavy-handed it'll work good.
@satsunoryu that's what i will try on Wednesday. If not i can return jt back 🙂
But there are not much choice for ps5. Ps5 have been out fri 2 years and there are only 2 or 3 licensed sticks for it
I’m gonna do a mod like this but instead I’m going to buy a shorter usb cable that plugs into the pcb board so that way I don’t get input delay once attaching the other detachable cable. Too much length can cause latency issues in the cable and cause input delay in some cases.
Found any short cables for the pcb? thinking of doing this for my Pearl
@@scottrobinson6719 Lol couldn't find anything so I'm likely going to splice a cable and wire it myself. But I'm too lazy so idk yet what I wanna do LMAO
Great vid 👌 and I'm wondering if u can put news pushbuttons and artwork?
Great idea but 2 bad u have to this to a so called premium stick.
Can u use any usb c cable
Would this be possible to do on the Qanba Drone 2 N3?
Do you have a link to the purple cable you are using? I didn't see it in the video description
that's the outta cable, it's actually the one for the Victrix Pro FS but you can use any USB-C to USB-A cable for the outer cable
@@kenshisanki can we use type c to type c ? i wanna use type c cable in my ps5
@kartikmj9571 if you can find a c to c female to male end to attach the motherboard yeah
Or even easier find an a to c adapter like what comes with the Mayflash sticks or Qanba Q8
What a great Idea!
I assume this doesnt introduce any lag
you're a good man
OK that's actually genius.
this qanba stick looks like a mayflash stick ...
Dude you could add a USB hub and a USB led RGB strip and it would still be a solderless install
Do you have a link to a video for that?
@@marcelocruz7532 no but its relatively easy to do. you just place a usb hub in the arcade stick and then just do your wiring off that. thats implying your also placing your arcade cable inside the stick in the usb hub. you would still need to add an additional cable off the usb hub to have a removable cable
if i wanna use type c to c in ps5 . what should i do? can i use detachable cable type c to c ? @briarrabbit
