Version 2 needs to be an arcade fight stick style. Of course there has to be a version 2. This would be something you send to channels like GameGrumps to see how frustrated they get. You could probably do a twitch stream where you try to win a game of whatever game is popular this month.
The hero we need but don't deserve. But seriously though, that's a neat little project even though the end result is an abomination that could implode reality.
Appreciate the feedback! How would you recommend I film? I've tried tripods with an "over the shoulder" kind of view but I end up not getting all the good bits.
@@Solder_king dnt rightly know. i dont make vids. but have you tried like, head or chest mounted gopro? might get you what your lookin for. close enough to see the action but angle wont feel upside downish? just a thought
I hope this controller can answer the life long question: Assymetrical vs symmetrical vs...? ..lovecraftian abomination? (im sure some crazy bloke out there is into that kind of stuff)
I just wanna see some gamer absolutely tear in a FPS with this setup, like this was the brush they've been missing to paint their Mona Lisa lol

Can you make a video about replacing an S2/S5 thrustmaster stick with a Hall sensor stick? maybe can I install a Hall gimbal used in FPV drone controllers? Do I need to do any further steps than soldering the connections?
Hey there Solderking, this isn't related to this video but I was wondering how much you knew about something. How much do you know about potentiometers? For years I was trying to understand why some random 3rd party controllers have a square stick where you can get 100% inputs diagonally, compared to normal 1st party ones with a rounded deadzone that max out around 70 percent diagonally. The other day I finally realized some potentiometers have numbers on them, and these numbers show the measured angle of input from 0-100%. So the weird squared stick I like that can hit 100% diagonally checking gamepad tester has the number 38 on it which shows a 38 degree angle on the range so it takes less input to fully max out. A lot of first party ones I noticed have 60 or 6 on the potentiometer which means a much larger angle and you have to move the stick further to get 100% input from side to side. With this 60 degree angle range you can't hit 100% diagonally like I prefer. My idea is I want to find a way to modify the sensitivity of these 60 degree angle potentiometers on the controllers to make them have a smaller angle, so it takes less range moving the stick to reach 100% input. It seems like the metal piece called a wiper on the inside moves along this small carbon ink strip, which reads this input from 0-100%. But I'm not sure if it's possible to modify it accurately to make have the same angle on both sticks. I'm not quite sure what you would even change for this to work, I was thinking shortening the carbon ink angle on the inside or adjusting the wiper to make it more flat so it is more sensitive. I don't think any of this really makes much sense the more I think about it lol, but I'd love to find an easy way to modify these. Other alternative is to just get these 38 degree potentiometers and try to solder them on my other controllers that I would want to have squared sticks on. Thanks.
Yo solder king, you know what would be cool, if you were to make a controller that countered a lot of weak sides of the series X controller. Here’s what 8 have in mind. (Mind u I have no idea how difficult it would be to do the following) 1. Replace stock thumb sticks with Hall effect sensor thumb sticks 2. Replace face buttons and dpad buttons with tactile (clicky) or micro snap switches Whaddya think???
So replacing the sticks with the magnetic ones is possible but it would need to include a mirco processor to read the change in voltage from the hall effect sensors then turn that into the voltage the controller is expecting from the potentiometers. The tactile switches can be done as well :) of the two the tactile switch would be the easiest but once you figure out the coding needed for the hall effect to analog output you can make a small interconnect PCB for the two and make it a drop in replacement
Nothing is stupid, just impractical, but then again it has to be done. How can we learn better design and engineering without trying it first? Physical prototypes are the only way to validate designs and simulations. 😅
Is it possible to convert razer wolverine thumbstick layout to a symectrical layout like a PS5 controller? would love to see a video on that and how its done!
Bro, podrias hacer un video de como ponerle gatillos (ZL, ZR) como los de XBOX o PS4, a un control de nintendo wii u. Ese control es de mis favoritos pero con esos gatillos son una mierda :(
This is the stupidest thing I've ever seen, I love it
Mission accomplished!
Next Step: A Steam controller where the entire surface is touch sensitive.
Sweet jesus imagine all the stick drift
Just replace them all lmao
The xbox controller can't hurt you.....
Me: yeahhhh but........ It's... It's, mortifying. 😥😰

I love how you said "this is stupid" and "why did I make this?" About 30 times in the video.
Yet at the end of the day, you still made it..... WHY?
The world must burn!
Stick.Drift.Paradise.
😆
Good stuff
Helder and I made a kit to get rid of stick drift so I'll just slap those on every stick lol
@@Solder_king yea, it’s being copied all over the world!
I'am calling police.
I think that's best lol.
You were so preoccupied with whether you could, you didn’t stop to think if you should!
The sad part is that I did think but wanted to watch the world burn!
@@Solder_king Well, some men just want to watch the world burn I suppose...so be it!
Yes inquisitor,
This video.
A marvel of engineering
The doctor eggman kind not the solving world hunger kind
A friend comes over and you hand him this saying in a fake jigsaw voice:
*"Let's play a game..."*
😆
Drinking game o' death: shot every time he says 'Analogue Stick.'

You are very talented. Very interesting videos. 😊
You really are a Solder King!
Ok. One criticism. That camera angle is giving me Vertigo my dude. Otherwise, this video and concept are gold.

Thanks.
love the creativity! did you use a multimeter to find which cable to connect with each button layout? and how did you identify the ground arrangement?

@@Solder_king sounds like quite the project
How did you solder to the button points, there should've been a plastic layer where your copper was
well it's stupidly cool but honestly it could be a good controller for fighting games
😂 can you mod an xbox controller to use King Kong 2 Pro controller joysticks?
Definity But can I also use them for every button?

That just means Microsoft will be releasing their version 🤣

The XBOX Shrek Controller
You're a legend
Appreciate it :)
Hi, can you recommend a list of soldering equipment for a newbie? Thx
I sure can!
What price range do you have in mind?
@@Solder_kinglike a mid-range set-up, so a mix of quality and price. $200-$350 approx.
@@Solder_king I too am interested in your recommendations.
This is so gloriously stupid, i hope this video gians some traction cause this deserves to make headlines lmao
Thanks for both of those lol! This is incredibly dumb but fun :D
So it is possible to press LB and LT at the same time, but what about A+X?
Yes! The trigger sticks and buttons can work at the same time. You can diagonal the stick to activate two buttons at once
@@Solder_king so it wouldn't be possible to activate two buttons directly away from each other?🤔
Do you often make things like this, and do you like sell them as products or Commissions?
podrias ayudarme con un rapid fire xbox series ?
Why God why
>:)
Can I buy one from you I really want one
I only made a one off. But if I were to sell it, it would probably cost a bit
do you have a link to the guy who you sent it to?
