PSA: How to switch C40 to PS4 mode on Windows 10 The Astro C40 uses Xbox360 mode on Windows 10. The switch from PS4 mode to Xbox360 mode is done by a filter driver. By disabling the filter driver you can use the C40 in PS4 mode. 1) Open Registry Editor. 2) Goto Computer\\HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Enum\\USB\\VID\_9886&PID\_0025 3) Find values named "LowerFilters" with data "logi\_joy\_usb\_lo". 4) Right-click "LowerFilters" and rename it to "xxx\_LowerFilters" (or whatever). 5) Plug in the C40. It will now be in PS4 mode. Device Manager > Universal Serial Bus Controllers will show "Astro C40 TR (PS4)". If you want to bring it back to Xbox360 mode then rename "xxx\_LowerFilters" back to "LowerFilters" and unplug/replug. Beware that the Astro C40 TR Configuration Software does not recognize the C40 when it is in PS4 mode.

Got this off of reddit, if you follow the instructions correctly, you will be able to use the Astro as a PlayStation controller regardless.

I should buy the standard tension ones or the 130g ones??

[@oblivionghost28]

Sorry about the late reply, get the 130g, they are a bit stiffer, but won't suffer from stick drift.

whats the screw driver called

[@papawhiskeylt]

Can I Astro C40 pairing with different transmitter?

[@oblivionghost28]

If your talking about the wireless dongle, yes as long as it's made for the C40 controller.

[@vidyostreams]

Can you add digital triggers to my Astro c40?

[@oblivionghost28]

Why would you want digital triggers on a C40? I don't think you can add those unless you send it off to someone who specializes in controller modding.

[@Saito2k]

ok but how did you get the things to devise the module ?

[@oblivionghost28]

Sorry, I'm not following, could you be more specific? If your talking about who makes the modules. They are Epindon, they are a 3rd party company who has dedicated themselves on making adjustable tension sticks just for the C40 controller. If your asking about how I got them to work with the controller itself. It's the same when you swap modules around, hold the button in under the controller for around 5 seconds, wait for the controller to vibrate, set it down on a flat surface, wait 30 seconds and it should be recalibrated.

How's the stick drift so far?

[@oblivionghost28]

No stick drift so far.

[@oblivionghost28]

Been over a year since I had this controller and adjustable tension sticks, still going strong. I have not had any stick drift what so ever, the C40 has been my main go to controller over every Xbox controller I currently own including the elite series 2 controller for all my gaming needs.

[@m3rkz-]

How long these last ?

[@oblivionghost28]

mine lasted about 3 months, and I put the stock modules back into my C40. because these are after market copies of the elite series 2 controller adjustable tension modules. The C40s circuit board sometimes stops reading what some of the modules input functions are suppose to work. I will be making a follow up video soon, and not as long.

[@oblivionghost28]

These adjustable tension sticks will last well over a year+. However there have been some shipped that can end up with a faulty permanent button press when you press down on the toggle stick.
