    Thanks, I know you have been mad busy, so I appreciate the review. Hope you don't mind me making a couple of points that I also did on Twitter / X.
    Head position, posture, thumb position, and lighting can all affect tracking. I use the Q3 Ultra a lot, especially in Ghosts of Tabor and don't have tracking issues. If anyone has concerns and would like any particular weapons demonstrating, I can upload videos any time - just ask.
    With all top-mounted stocks there is a risk of occlusion, you have to work with it rather than against, you'll find what works best and suits your playstyle when you spend time with a new stock, that's the same for any stock regardless of model.
    Hope this makes sense for people 🙂

    2:30 This is why removing the tracking rings with touch plus was a mistake. The whole point of the rings is that they make it impossible for your hands to occlude the tracking LEDs in the controllers. Now, it's extremely easy to occlude most of the LEDs, and Meta tries to make up for the with "AI predictive tracking. " Touch Plus controllers are effectively a downgrade from regular old touch controllers when it comes to tracking.

    Thanks for the review it is very thorough as usual. Also with tracking with anything with or without a stock and that is ANY stock not just ours, the Quest 3 the LED can be effected by long sleeves we have found. Lost tracking whilst wearing a hoodie a while back >

  • @JaceDrummer
    @JaceDrummer 9 месяцев назад +2

    Which would you recommend more, this, the Blitzer or the Sanlaki Elite? I have the Elite but am thinking of sending it back. It is okay but the magnets don't hold as well as I would like making the grips slip off easily. Does this seem to hold and "feel" better when removing and reattaching the grips?

    • @jinxed13
      @jinxed13 9 месяцев назад +2

      I am biased as I am half of KobraVR. We order custom magnets, so they are consistent strength and quality. They are thoroughly tested to avoid accidental slip. Personally, I like lightweight stocks and a fixed rear, so Blitzer would be my go to.

    • @Maraksot78
      @Maraksot78  9 месяцев назад +1

      Man that's kind of a tough question. I can't speak to the SanLaki as I've never used one, but when it comes to choosing between the Blitzer and the MagLock Ultra, in my opinion, it boils down to what kind of expeience you're looking for?
      If you want something that is easy to use, super lightweight, is super adjustable and just flat out fast for playing fast paced online shooters like Contractors, or Vail or something, I would recommend the Blitzer as it fits all those criteria really well.
      On the other hand if you're more into Simulation shooters and looking for something that is going to give you the most realistic experience then the Ultra is definitely worth trying out. It's not as heavy as a real firearm, because in a video game you're going to be holding up your rifle a lot more than you would in real life and it being light weight helps prevent fatigue, but when it comes to being able to disconnect your dominant hand from the stock to use that hand for things, I don't know how it could be any better. The magnets hold your controller firmly in place and you can even pull the stock into your shoulder a decent amount with that controller before the magnets will detach. For the controller to detach easily you have to tip the handle of the controller toward the magazine like I show at 7:51. If you pull straight back it takes significantly more force to get them to come apart. Falandorn (the owner/creater of KobraVR) told me they use N52 strength mangets which have a pulling force of around 10 pounds, so they lock in really nicely.
      But yah, if you're more of a competetive online player, I would say the Blitzer is the way to go and if you're a sim guy then the Ultra is probably going to suit you best.

    • @KobraVR
      @KobraVR 9 месяцев назад +4

      @@Maraksot78 About the magnets this info is not strictly correct and it is a little more complex. We use different strength and size magnets for different applications, we also change the strength through various small tweaks eg it was too strong on the Ultra at one point so we altered the design and lowered the strength, we can also have a change to the size of the countersunk hole for instance. Sourcing them is key, an N38 from one manufacturer can be similar to an N52 from a different one - even though it is listed as the same force "N52". I buy the magnets from the same company every time as they are specialists and offer consistency.

    • @s1gma-s1x
      @s1gma-s1x 9 месяцев назад +1

      I would say kobravr. I know it could be a conflict of interest on my part since I am a sponsor so take my word with a pinch of salt. But I'll be honest with you, since I owned a Sanlaki and many kobra stocks, I'll say it depends on your play style! I think the kobra stocks are really rugged and really well put together. The stocks are tested functional and are really user-friendly. I have to say, personally, using stocks that use magnetic docks does take time to master and practice to perfect. This includes the kobra stocks as well. I personally love the magnetic dock stocks from KobraVR as I primarily run with the Ultra (the one from this review) and the maglock pro stocks. The issues that I had with the Sanlaki stocks were the use of metal poles with 3d printed plastic. During the construction process, if you over tighten the poles, the threads on the pole can and will cross thread the 3d printed parts, causing parts to fit loosely. And heaven forbid you drop it, the weight of the poles can snap any of these 3d printed connections. But both are really solid products for their own reasons. Just do your research on the products to find what suits your play style and needs.

      @Maraksot78  9 месяцев назад +2

      I had no problem using most all SMG's with the Ultra. Stuff like the MP5, the Vector and others all worked great with the Ultra. For the ones where your hands are super close together, you can adjust the gunstock calibration in some games to help, but sometimes even that isn't enough. Over all though it's pretty surprising how forgiving most games are about your hand placement. There was only a couple guns I had trouble with using the Ultra, So in my opinion, not being able to adjust the distance between your hands isn't a deal breaker.

      I believe the Quest 3 controllers are just different enough that they don't fit right in the Quest Pro rings. When you order, you can message KobraVR and ask to get both sets of controller mounting rings. KobraVR is very customer service oriented and I know they'll be more than happy to accommodate you.

    I am glad that Exponential technology products and barriers to entry for things such as these actually democratizes/dematerializes (Diamandis guy talks about) the experiences to all gamers of sort regardless. But isn't it the whole experience of VR or the Gaming industry in general is to provide entertainment and 'experiences' (subjective) to a whole new level-- to get away/escapees from the mundane reality of it all. I mean the use of tools that mimics/utilizes our biological Hunter and Gatherer hand and eye coordination thingy defeats the whole purpose of what is deemed possible for closing the gap with the 'fantasy' world, which kind of 'killjoy' actually. I know that this niche market is at the early stages of adoption for all things geek, but this nascent industry should focus more on building tools that will capture our very wildest imagination yet. I mean why not take advantage of the infiniteness of the digital world of bits, instead of doing things like reloading the barrel and all the ridiculous things that go with it. I apologize for not being liberal BABY! but this makes me want to recite John Travolta's 'well! life is stranger than fiction sometimes' with the overall direction of this technology.

      the problem here is that the prices are insane, basically they are all selling 3d printed things with few light weight pipes at 10 times the cost. in Australia the Sanlaki is 200 dollars, this one in the video 180 and probably the cost to make them is around 15 to 20 bucks (au$) including the magnets and metal parts.... unless this one has some "flair", the sanlaki is basically 2 pipes and 2 pieces of 3d printed material

    • @VulcanEditing
      @VulcanEditing 9 месяцев назад

      @juryfilanti at the end of the day it's to each their own as prices will vary depending on where you live and if you already have a 3D printer and such.
      The main things you're paying for when buying a VR stock isn't the material but the design and engineering. It takes a surprising amount of research and engineering to make a stock that's adjustable in numerous ways without having tracking issues and damaging the controllers. I've used a cheap stock a few years ago and I think I only paid like $40-60 for it but it was awful tbh, still better then no stock at all but the sling it came with didn't work right and the controllers has to be pushed into the holders everytime you needed to reload or throw something.
      Personally I'd rather just pay the $157 the Wield stock costs in USA and save me a ton of time designing and buying a 3d printer and learning to use it and etc. Plus these companies are usually pretty awesome about sending upgrade parts for free as long as ya pay shipping or honoring their warranties if a piece breaks.
