PS5 Controller | 2.0 Rise Remap Kit, Real Metal Buttons, and Paddle Comparison

[@MexicanJoker4life]

The updates they did was minor but its great that they listened to the feedback.

[@im.a.caveman]

That's what's pretty cool about this, that they listened. The metal one is honestly my favorite so far. Now I gotta try the new design.

[@nasmanxtra]

@@im.a.caveman is the metal one harder to press tho?

[@shishka3116]

Quick tip for those who have the v1 and plastic buttons. Buy some small self-adhesive rubber buffers and put them under the paddles. So, you don't press the paddles to their limits. Should increase the durability.

[@OkJobe]

I used metal tweezers for the whole entire thing and then when I went to plug the battery back in after everything was done I couldn’t get it in with my giant fingers so I used the tweezers and saw a spark….. I thought I bricked my controller because it wouldn’t turn on and it had a full charge… but all I did was plug it into the charger and everything worked fine after that thank God!!! Highly recommend these paddles though only took me about 40 minutes to install on my first time even with the battery scare lol.

[@randyphillips1617]

I ordered my metal paddles! 😀 My first controller was good, but the next one is going to be insane! Plus, using your name gave me a discount! I appreciate it, big dog!!! 👊🏽 Thanks for these videos; enhancing your controller is so much cheaper than spending $269!

[@im.a.caveman]

Glad you're excited to customize. Definitely cheaper to do DIY then buying a pre built especially because you can slowly add upgrades without wasting the money all at once. Thanks for using the code and thank you for watching the video!

[@blazey-one]

Def already ordered mine

[@im.a.caveman]

Nice!

[@Costinmusca]

They should've just use snap action switches like mouse switches and make the leverage point to press on them longer, like crisscross the switches from one side with the paddle from the opposite (farthest) side, that way they can get away with lighter switches (as usually snap action ones are - I believe that around 150 grams "green dot" it's among the heaviest ones) Also they should've used leaf springs to actuate the switches - this way they'd solve the paddles breaking issue and also prevent extra pressure being applied on the switches themselves.. (once the switch actuated / "snapped", the extra weight that can be applied to it by pressing harder on the paddle, even as it hits the back shell of the controller, it's just the spring's tension.. which is limited) These dreaded dome metal switches that everyone and their grandma seems to use anywhere and everywhere as they're cheap as chips are the worst kind of clicky switches that one can use in an electronic device.. (just to check the "clickiness box" - which regardless, is a.. hideous, unsatisfactory type of click.. empty, hard and dull.. ) seeing them used even under the D-Pad in the XBOX Elite controllers makes me.. sad..

[@yurpcrusher123]

This was a great video very informative thank you so much. So it sounds like they don’t just sell metal button replacement for the v1 remap kit and make u buy the 24.99 unit when honestly all I need is the metal buttons. Especially since it is same size and everything, just metal. Uuugghhh

[@yurpcrusher123]

So I ordered the metal kit and just gonna swap the metal buttons. If the back unit breaks then I’ll put the new metal one on. But current one seems fine it’s just them plastic buttons that crack on me over and over.

[@im.a.caveman]

I've seen they've only been selling the plastic kit without the remap board. So far I haven't seen it for the RMB. Which does suck. But you're right, atleast now you'll have an extra board for the long run. Plus the board for the plastic and RMB are different with the switches they have.

[@mohamed0j]

Can you show us how you installed with out cutting the cable ?

[@nasrinakter8003]

Should i get the plastic or the metal paddle? I tried the metal ones before and they are slepery when you start sweating. However the plastic one apparently they are not that durable and they are very sensitive.

[@im.a.caveman]

You could try the plastic paddles with the switches from the metal version and see if that works out better.

[@im.a.caveman]

There was definitely problems with plastic paddles breaking. I never experienced it but people have mentioned it. Could be they pushed them down to hard or a design flaw for harder presses not sure. I personally don't push them too hard like that.

[@boniko82]

​@@im.a.cavemanhi, the settings button behind, sits loose and rickety. I have the metal one. The same with yours? I mean nothing bad. Just recognize does fit perfectly and made noises from the metal.

[@nallanw4329]

Thanks for sharing this man! So after installing this could I later install the clicky trigger kit?

[@randyphillips1617]

You could, but I think if you install everything all together, it would be easier so you don't have to keep opening the controller.

[@Vincent-ht9it]

I just installed my clicky triggers last night but initially did the back buttons first. I would recommend do the triggers first because after taping the back button part to the battery, it can be a little pain in the butt to work around it to get to the triggers. Not impossible but will make your life easier

[@unloughfulgaming]

NO, it’s horrible. Do the triggers first or at the same time

[@im.a.caveman]

Like the other people said, it would be better to do the triggers first. But if you really want to have the remap kit and later install the triggers then it will be a little tricky. I've done it, just took me a little longer to finish the control. Just be careful and patient if you do the triggers 2nd.

[@unloughfulgaming]

@@im.a.caveman I did it, I regretted it so hard. Now I’m contemplating converting it full green and thinking about it just turns me off the whole idea 🤣

[@MonticArckeys]

On the loose button bit at end, there was some tiny black sticky tape/foam in the box, I used that to stick it down. Have seen people say to use tape on the rods to reduce vibration, so I'm not sure if that's what it was for?

[@raverism]

Hey man, great video. I got the first kit a few days ago but I probably should've done more research beforehand. In your opinion is it worth upgrading to the newest kit? My only criticism is that sometimes the soft grip can feel slightly slippery so would the rubber grip provide a big difference or is it minimal?

[@im.a.caveman]

If you're looking for grip yeah I would recommend the rubberized grip shell. As for the kit. 2.0 has updated paddles but the metal ones are personally my favorite so far. The metal kit has switches that aren't as sensitive to press and the paddles are metal so more durability.

[@orrinbaroi]

I have cables from the Rise 4 already installed. Would I need to rewrite the kit if I wanted to switch to this kit or would just the board and buttons do?

[@im.a.caveman]

It should work as long as the correct cables are installed. Just change the remap board along with the paddles and cover

[@christopherjiron9578]

If you do end up getting a 20 and want to move this kit to it, how do you plan on dealing with the part that you adhered to the battery?

[@im.a.caveman]

If it's really sticky you can apply some heat with either a hair dryer or heat gun. You just need the glue to loosen up. I was able to take if off easily without heat applied. The glue wasn't as sticky but still good enough to stick back.

[@flipfuzion]

Hey Caveman, what number screw driver are you using to unscrew everything? Like what would I tell the guy at Home Depot that I need? Thanks.

[@JRisabeast09]

It should come with a screwdriver when you get the kit

[@vGami-]

Compre la versión V2 con los paddle en metal porque con la V1 rompí como 3 paddle. tu que ya lo tienes salen buenas las paddle de metal ?

[@im.a.caveman]

Personalmente me gustan más los remos de metal. Están un poco sueltos, pero para mí no es gran cosa. Los interruptores también necesitan un poco más de fuerza para presionar. Para mi los de metal son los mejores.

[@pcysneros]

When will you get the 4 paddle version to review

[@im.a.caveman]

I'm gonna try to get a hold of it asap. I thought they were going to send me the kit and then they never told me anything. I'll get it myself do a review and comparison and then have a separate installation video for it It's not 4 paddles though. It 2 paddles + 2 buttons. Update: the kit is actaully in my PO Box.

Yes, as long as the kits are compatible with your control.

[@RbandRob]

@@im.a.caveman so if I wanted to put all the kits u did on your last controller video what order would I need to do it in

[@casemartin5876]

so if you are only using the X and O buttons you ONLY have to install the new board?

[@im.a.caveman]

Turns out you need to install atleast one of the cables that goes on the left or right. That's if you don't plan on remapping bumpers or triggers. The installation for BDM-030 is different. Check for compatibility before buying if you're interested on the product.

Yeah a little wiggly I don't know why they didn't make it a tighter fit for the metal. It should've felt like the plastic which are nice and firm. Honestly metal's are still my favorite. Hopefully when they do the metal Rise 4 it'll be a better fit.

Depending on your control, you'll just have to cut the cables that you don't need, and then install it. My older one is for BDM-010 and my new one with the Rise4 is a BDM-020. The only thing is that my older video was the V1 which didn't have the extra cables because BDM-020 controllers weren't known by the company. That's the reason they updated the kit which comes with the BDM-010 and BDM-020 cables.
