Hey brother, Hope you've been well. I've finally had time to sit down and start messing around with the Fusion Pro 3 and I found out a method that's not 100% but it eliminates the whole hyper input feel to this controller. I have always felt that if you could get a larger diameter circle to calibrate the sticks then it would minimize the feeling of the hyper response. I have tried countless amounts of things without success apart from the last thing i tried last night. The black friction rings around the sticks, If you just take them out (They are pretty well wedged in) and then calibrate the controller. It has a more linear feel to the sticks. atleast from my tests. Also if it's not responsive enough you can adjust the outset deadzone through the app to try and fine tune it. It's not perfect as without the friction rings it does have jagged edges. But imo I don't ever fully extent the sticks and rotate anyways so it's not an issue for me. I'm going to do some more tests in the future but I thought you would find this interesting. Have a good day mate

The next thing I want to try is calibrate it without the friction rings. Then put the rings back on and adjust the outer deadzone. It might not make a difference but maybe it will somehow change the input values and the hyper input will be removed.

After testing it, Deadzone Anywhere between 0-3% is fine outer deadzone between 7-15% seems to feel nice in apex playing linear-none deadzone., definitely not perfect but it makes the controller feel somewhat playable for now

Bro that’s an amazing tip! I’ll definitely try that today. The extra diagonal input definitely makes it difficult to adjust to, this might do the trick to tame it a bit.

@bahgoesthesheep 5 ай бұрын

@@thephototechy definitely try it out. I found putting a 1% dead zone on I did a little less twitchy and more stable but ultimately it's whatever you prefer. I ended up staying on 10% outer dead zone makes it a little faster but also not too twitchy. Also I noticed when you put the friction rig back on and you test out the sticks on controller tester. Aiming right was 4% greater input than aiming left. It is a little imbalanced but overall for the stability this little trick made this controller for me I'm fine with it.

I owned the previous Fusion Pro for PS and Pro 2 for Xbox, both with capacitive stick modules. I loved the build of the controllers, but the sticks were soft for me, I wanted more tension, and was not a fan of the back paddles, I did not hate them either, but I thought they would not be durable, so I sold them. I might try this one.

@thephototechy 5 ай бұрын

Hey bro I do like the back buttons on this one a lot, but I never tried the pro2 and it’s pedals, also not sure what aiming output was on the pro2. This one can feel a bit uncontrollable at first, but with adjusted game settings can work well. I only started using it, as I needed something I could quickly press back buttons for jump shots.

@@CliveThorpe that’s very strange indeed bro. So you only see that test page after you select the controller? I’d say definitely reach out to PowerA and see if it’s something with your unit. I remember there was an update long time ago, which I had to download a separate client for from the website, but that was not stricter by the app. Not sure if you did that as well in the past, it could be that my controller had that firmware so the software shows different options to me. If you never had that first update it might be these aren’t available for your firmware, just a theory.

I need your advice please, I have Dualsense Edge but I need a controller with 4 Back Buttons, I'm playing Apex Legends, Call of Duty & some other FPS games on PS5. Which one of this controllers you can recommend it to me to buy it now? - 1) Nacon REVOLUTION Pro 5 - 2) Victrix BFG Pro. I watched your videos about the Razer Wolverine v2 Pro & I trusted your words & I didn't put it on the list. I bought the Dualsense Edge because I suffer from stick drift & I bought for about 4 new controllers since PS5 released but now i need 4 back buttons. But also I don't want to after 6 or 8 months to buy another one. Waiting for your response. Thanks. Wish you a good luck.

@thephototechy 5 ай бұрын

Hey bro, so the issue with the wolverine v2 pro is with BFG and Nacon as well. I’ve tested them both against edge and they just don’t compare to the aiming performance of edge. The controllers are great on their own, but Sony has made it so their own controller performs the best on PS5. The difference is minor and depending on you skill and play style, you can easily get used to them, but for me edge is the only one for PS5, even though I love the Xbox style controllers. Still if you need a controller with 4 back buttons, I’d suggest looking at something like a modified dualsense with 4 back buttons. Between the BFG and Nacon, I’d highly recommend waiting for the BFG Hall effect module release and see how that performs, as that can potentially be a long term solution for stick drift, and might perform better than Revolution 5 pro on PS5.

I just need some clarification on deadzone. Should I match the game deadzone to my controller. I'm playing mw3

@thephototechy Ай бұрын

hey bro in the the fusion app or any other controller with app support, if you enable any deadzones then add in gane deadzones, you are doubling the deadzones then. I'd say keep the app min deadzones to 0 and use in game settings to your preference, or if you use the app deadzones then keep the in game deadzones to 0. I have made a video showing a bug where MW3 applied a standard 10% deadzone even though I had it set to 0, if there were any deadzones applied through the controller app then I'd have doubled the deadzones applied.

@josephbassil4171 5 күн бұрын

Hey if 2 back buttons are enough for you, then for me 100% yes. G7se to aim with on Xbox with 1000hz os definitely a lot more predictable and manageable than this one. I only started using this, so I could bunny hop with 4 back buttons like a lot of others in my lobbies 😂. For jumping like crazy, the back buttons on this one work well. If PowerA changes the aim output to true raw, this potentially could be the go to 4 back buttons controller for me.
