Hey. I made a little error in saying the stickers came included with this button box. Rem was being nice by throwing them in with my order and I didn't realize it. Nonetheless he is being generous to offer a 10% code, for my mistake :) if you decide to pick one up. It is in the description above.
a button box like that one there in the video would be perfect for mech based games like Mechwarrior (minus the engine start since the Steel Battalion controller already has one).
I was just surfing the RUclipss and stumbled upon my friend Joseph making more awesome contents for the World Wide Web! Great work as always dude. I like your hardware review style, hopefully we’ll see more in the future
Nice choice there 'Jo', can I call you that?! lol I have one of the original NA1's . It is a beast! The one thing I noted you did very well here is the integration with P1X. I have the same chassis and never thought to do as you've done to mound it. I ended up getting a few RAM mount components to do the job. Problem I have is that the unit is solid enough (didn't want to use the word 'heavy' as implies the wrong impression) to not be a good fit position in any other way than close to the system as when in use it moves about, not a lot, but enough to make you conscious of the fact that it could be mounted better. I'm gonna try your way as soon as I get through the door tonight. Nice presenting style too btw - don't change! :)
Thanks Victor and of course you can call me that 😉. I was going to get the ram mounts as well but remembered I had a few extra brackets and plenty of TNuts (Sim Lab are generous) so I had my previous one mounted that way and figured it would work with the NA2. It’s on there pretty solid and with only the two brackets there’s no play at all. Thanks for the nice words✌️
Stumpled over IgnitiON just yesterday in the thoughts of my first button box- most Likely suited for VR racing with my NLR F-GT Lite seat and T300RS-GT + T-LCM + 2xT8HA. And most likely the button box installed at same side as my 2xT8HA. Was looking at the IgnitiON _VR1 box, but just checked the dimensions. Sadfully it's about double size of what I was planning for. Any suggestion for a tad smaller box from IgnitiON? (seems they have the most professional solutions for casual simmers) I don't need endless number of buttons, maybe just 5-6 buttons apart from ignition and start buttons.
This review is exactly 2 months to late. Was looking for one as well and ordered the Mobeartec Racecontrol pro on christmas eve after getting an amazon voucher from my sister. I like my button box, but it has no lightning in it. Currently have plans for a little Arduino & LED stripe project to lighten it up.
Nice button box. I'd like to see the rotarys further apart or offset with standard buttons for vr use. I'm sure you can spec it this way if you ask nicely. Where did you get the nvidia ruler from, I really like it?
Hi! How do you configure the buttons in simulators? Do they work as independent buttons and you choose them straight away or they're just keyboard extensions? Thanks!
Hi, It varies depending on the game but the bottom row are mostly used for enabling/disabling Ambient lighting in Simhub, VR Reset, Car reset, show/hide map or hud, etc. The 2 knobs are less used but in AMS2 they are set for ARBs. Hope this helps and thanks for watching.

Great review, thanks helped make my final decision ordering now!

Thanks Mike. Always up for trying new things.
Beautiful button box but a little surprised by the low quality cable
I only bought Derek spears but now that I got a couple of these boxes I can truly say there a cut above any out there.

You just need to let me know when you’re shopping for products and I’ll do the research 😂
Hi, what did you map to the 2 lower knobs and first row of the push buttons.
Really nice button box!😍👌
Trying to figure out a coffee making button assignent 😂

Thanks. I believe the VR1 model has Rotaries further apart . Keen eye ;) It was a gift from a friend that works at Nvidia.

Most will be recognized by the game ias an input device. For example in ACC it shows Button Box Device when mapping.
