    Have to drop a comment on my experience with the warranty. I started to experience some flat out loss of motion on the left stick about 10 months into having my Xbox ultra x. Hex was quick to respond through email and requested I record my issue on gamepad tester. This wasn’t drifting but rather sticking. They sent me a replacement option after sending my broken unit in about 4 weeks. No fuss or confirmation of any social media post like the original warranty requested. They advised I use the rubber stick protectors moving forward and the gamepad works great. For this I will always praise hex and continue to pick up there products.

    • @GamerHeavenOfficial
      @GamerHeavenOfficial  Месяц назад +5

      Thank you for sharing your experience. Unfortunately the stick was faulty but good on them for handling the situation properly. 8 years with extremerate parts, 5 years with hex controllers (their parts) and I’ve had a very positive personal experience with my hex’s.

      There the rubber rings that come with the unit to wrap your sticks. Makes contact with the o-ring and takes some getting used to but will add to the game pads longevity for sure.

    I've had 2 Aim Controler generations .And the one Scuff Reflex Pro. And everything about the Aim Controller from the grip to the hair triggers and clicking buttons. Was amazing truly felt like luxury IT IS LITERALLY LIFE CHANGING. The only thing I can say is the scuff has lasted me longer from stick drfits with all of them to dropping my controllers ALL OF THEM whoops ( from chair heighth ) on accidetn😴 the scuff paddle layout is SUPERIOR !!❤ And how light the scuff is also. But tbh the only way to figure what is most natural for you. IS TO WATCH HIS VIDEOS and also try them out for youreself.

    The issue with those screws to "re-center" thumbsticks will be the same as the Drift fix repair boards that extremerate also sell. When you re-center a worn potentiometer, you lose outer threshold from the opposite direction from the drift your correcting.

  • @naliboi93

    Those triggers with the dual mode switchable long travel vs short travel mouse click looks impressive!
    How does the short travel work? Does it disable the adaptive trigger mechanism auomatically when you oull the levers or do you still need to turn off the adaptive trigger mechanism on the PS5 options?
    They mentioned the Phantom on the Extremerate subreddit and I loved that these have the option of switchable modes for long throw analogue trigger and short digital clicky triggers. Disappointingly, they stated in the comment section that they have no plans of making these trigger mods a standalone extremerate kit (like they have done for the Xbox with their "Flexor" kits).
    Would have loved having this feature on my own modded Dualsense

    My OEM PS5 controller came out of the box with the exact same issue on its right trigger, it feels super loose whenever the adaptive triggers are not being used.
    I googled it and it's apparently a common issue with PS5 controllers. Sucks that it carries over to a custom-built pro, though.

    What's your TOP 3 PRO controllers for PS5 ?
    I'm looking to buy one but I don't know which one I should buy
    I'm looking into the Nacon Revolution 5 Pro because It has hall sensors anti drift or the Dual Sense Edge because we can swap the analog sticks if they get drift, but it only has 2 back paddles
    I saw the Aim controllers too.. but I don't know if they are any good
    I really don't know what I should get, I live in Europe
    If you could help me in any way, I would be extremely grateful

    Sounds awesome. Im currently waiting for my Aim controller; been waiting just over a month so far. Whilst I’m waiting I use my Dualsense edge on my PC that I absolutely love. I use my HYPR on my ps5 which I enjoy but I find the back buttons rather uncomfortable. Lastly I use the funlab Firefly on the switch which is awesome but I find myself remapping / unmapping the rear buttons during gameplay which is rather annoying.
    I blame you for my controller obsession! 😂

    I'm just here to point out that you have to be super careful when you calibrate your sticks with the small trimmer-potentiometers on the front.
    They usually have a SUPER low lifecycle of around 10 - 100 turns, so if you keep adjusting them back and fourth you will wear them down really quick.
    They are a set and forget kinda deal.

(Fallout 3 version has better colors and better front torso) the Liberty Prime on Fallout 4 head (surrounded by relevant knurling) one grip and the 2 atomic bombs w/ it's rigging (for more grip) on another grip but the color would be Fallout 3- copper or rust (not brown). Also suggest to make a full metal version including the clips, the surface is brushed darkened a bit real solid copper or anodized aluminum (but anodization could wear off overtime and when scratched) with lots of relevant knurling (maybe it just says Fallout repeatedly in small metal font) for grip :-) It's a longshot but it's worth a try.

Could it be that the QRD has some software that corrects for close to perfect circularity, just so it performs better in this one test? Even very good controllers like the Vader 3 Pro cant even get close to that 0.5%?

    I want this (or Hex's PS4 Edge), but actual programable buttons for pc; not just remaps. Scuf seems to be the only company to do this but it doesn't have the touchpad for mouse and ps4/5 enabled games, the battery life isn't great, and their software seems spotty at best. I use claw grip so I can hit everything just fine making secondary inputs irrelevant. I wish at the very least these buttons appeared as just generic buttons with no input that you could program them with DS4 Windows or steam input.

      You'll never get this, ever. One issue is using the stock controller PCB and MCU, it has no overhead for custom inputs, or anything additional hence why every remap kit is on a separate PCB. Second issue is that it's a console controller locked to the features of the system, this is also why we don't see Switch or X-Input-only controllers with no additional overhead at the API itself. Scuf only did this because they made a PC-only controller, hence why it does have overhead for additional inputs that are not remaps, it's literally just a Direct Input or Raw Input device; Scuf also isn't the only one to do this, look at any PC-only or PC-primary controller and you'll see a lot of keybindings, for example Flydigi is a PC-primary company and llows for keybindings via their companion software or reWASD. If you're going to be having this kind of conversation, educate yourself first, all of this information is readily available if you actually made the effort to do a five second search.
      Steam Input also is not your friend here. Sure they might support a variety of console controllers, but that's about it. Raw Input and Direct Input pads are hard limited to emulate what Xinput is capable of; if you want gyro, you have to use a supported controller for it, if you want a touchpad you have to have a supported controller for it, etc. There's also no support for third party gamepads, hence why the mention of FlyDigi pads only mentioning reWASD support, as Steam Input lacks support. Even if you had a controller with extra features, there's zero way to integrate it into Steam Input. The only future hope is that Game Input, Microsoft's newest API, has a configurator that allows for usage like Steam Input but is outright compatible with any controller. On paper Steam Input is amazing, but in practical use it's like any other black box API from any of these other companies, the only benefit is that it's the more or less the official way to have multiple controller APIs function natively on PC.

      @@xaytana Scuf has the only pc-only controller I have seen in the playstation layout with extra buttons. There are a couple controllers with swappable stick positions but the frame is still xbox, which requires a longer reach to the sticks and is not ideal for my smaller hands. Like I said, I use claw grip. I obviously can't hit the d-pad with my left index finger in the xbox format. Otherwise I would have already gotten something like a flydigi pad as you suggested. Hence why I posted on a "playstation video" and not one of his others. Almost every other "pc controller" is in the xbox layout. While I'd love to use it, reWASD is bannable in online Activision and EA games just for being on your computer. It's absolute BS and basically criminal, but I'm not about to lose the time and money I put into Apex Legends and others just to use a controller. I also don't appreciate you insinuating that I am stupid and didn't do any research, because I have been for awhile. I was actually researching making my own game controller utilizing something like arduino because there is nothing on the market with everything I want. However, I have absolutely no experience with stuff like that, plus I'd probably need a 3d printer for a custom shell which I unfortunately don't have the space for. Although I do appreciate the knowledge about Game Input which I haven't heard about till now. I don't care if it works on the actual consoles or not. I simply want a pc controller, in the playstation layout, with extra buttons that can last me a days worth of gaming. Hex's ps4 edge and this newer ps5 design seems to be great imo. Scuf has proven it is at least possible, even if software is required for it to function properly.

      The edge is really comfortable for a dual shock4 which I usually think are bit small, I think the phantom would serve you better in the long run. How long have you been playing claw and any tips for new claw players?

    • @BlackWinds
      @BlackWinds Месяц назад

      @@GamerHeavenOfficial I appreciate the recommendations. Still not entirely sold yet but I'm definitely keeping them on my radar.
      I've been playing claw for many years now; since back in the Halo 3 & 4 days on xbox, I just didn't know there was a name for it back then. Then when the Xbox One fiasco hit with the kinect, I switched to ps4 where I played a lot of Destiny and Warframe. Warframe was the main game to solidify my preferred grip and controller layout. The earlier days of Warframe had your abilities mapped to directional inputs on the touchpad which was an absolute pain to activate in combat. So I remapped them in-game to the d-pad instead and started using claw with both hands. Now it's like second nature and I don't even think about it.
      I don't know if you could classify these as tips or not as they are pretty standard for claw, but I tend to put my right index finger on square (x on xbox), with the first part of my knuckle resting on triangle (y on xbox). This way I can hit both buttons without even moving my finger, and the other two don't require much travel either. Depending on the game, you can still use your index finger for R1 or swap to your middle finger if you require faster reactions. Middle finger is used for the triggers on both sides.
      I generally do the same for the left side too, but I find that most games use the d-pad far less than L1. So I find myself sometimes swapping my index finger solely to d-pad up for faster travel to L1. If I'm playing a rpg or something where the d-pad is basically just for menus and such, I generally don't even bother with claw grip on the left side.
