  • I finally picked up a Qanba Dragon after seeing one at a great price at EVO thanks to Paradise Arcade. In this video I go over everything I did to the dragon from its general build to modded it to my personal taste. Please enjoy!!

    Man I been really loving your videos man. I love fighting games and I never really thought of them as being something competitive. I love Street Fighter, Tekken, KOF, GG and others. I’ve been wanting to get more into Tekken and your video Don’t Give Up On Fighting Games, really hit me. I been wanting to get into getting a good stick that I can use on the ps4 and a pc if I get one in the future. But ya keep your content coming!!

    I got this in 2017 when it dropped and it is truly the heftiest stick. Honestly I grab my TE2+ more often because it's lighter and the reports about the PCB reaction difference. He's a maintenance tip, don't game with watches and/or bracelets on your wrist. A friend at a party used my Dragon and his right wrist with a bracelet put fine scratches on the aluminum palm rest. I called Qanba about touch up paint and they told me to use any silver paint SMH. Don't let other people touch this stick, let it only be yours!

    • @boina_verde
      @boina_verde 2 года назад

      I have a Razer Panthera Evo and an Etokki Omni Korean Ver. The balltop makes circular motions like qc, 2 x qc and hc much easier at least for me (I use a circular gate for the JLF). I'm using the Razer more (mostly on my lap), its weight is perfect as long as you keep the stock spring for the JLF. I'm playing KOF XV, GGST and the new TMNT and prefer Sanwa JLF over Taeyoung Fanta for these games

  • @facksmasheen
    @facksmasheen 3 года назад

    3:47 8.5 inch cable huh :^). You can close it without slamming it if you squeeze the same tabs you use to open it when you close it. My biggest gripe with it is the tiny little start and select buttons, makes practice mode in tekken pretty annoying, there's a lot of wasted space in that top section with the red led arrows that could just be normal-ish sized buttons. Small annoyance but the led pattern that it goes into on "sleep" mode kinda bothers me, imo all the leds should just turn off in sleep.

    I love the Dragon aswell but , the clips that opens the lid break super damn easy i had to make some patents to make them last for ever basicly , and the layout inside it is not a mod friendly arcade stick, for example if you want to install a UFB pcb it is really a nightmare hopefully its only me that is stupid :D if you have installed a ufb pcb i would love to see pictures of where you did installed it. The rest of the dragon design , weight is just fantastic i love the stick

      @alexnostalgix  4 года назад

      I have I've seen plenty of dragons and never seen the tabs break off TBH. As for mod friendly interior..... I swapped of plenty of korean levers and buttons with ease. Why do you even want the UFB in a dragon? The only parts that would be difficult is getting the lighting to work again and rewiring for start/select area. You can literally mount a UFB wherever you want.
