Seconding this; mine just arrived and when tested right out of the box, the circularity test showed 10% error rate across both sticks, brought down to 0.4% after enabling then disabling "Raw mode".

What is raw mode exactly? I dont see any option to enable or disable it in the app

I made an effort to describe each step in as detailed of a manner as possible to ensure you don't get lost anywhere. If you find yourself lost while following these directions, there's a chance you installed the wrong software. Open the software, press "Profiles", press "Configure" on whichever one you'd like to use and switch to the "Sticks" tab at the top of the software. You'll see one slider for each joystick named "Left Stick", "Right Stick"; right underneath those you will see a red line with "balls" on each end. These can be dragged around to adjust the deadzone, and dragging the right-end "ball" all the way to the right will enable "Raw mode". And as previously stated, do that once, then drag the right-end "ball" back down to 100 and you should see the aforementioned 0.4% error rate.

@@creativechannelhandle thank you i did what you said and it worked.

Thanks, will do that.

Best thing I have read all day! Thank you.

I’d hate to have an argument with this guy

Yes, that is fantastic idea !

Would love that for sure. Best PC/steam link controller with audio jack is of particular interest.

That would be amazing! I really need a good “pro” controller! Tested like 4 different out still haven’t found a good one tbh.

really? Rip PowerA

Do you agree with the comfort like the xbox one size?

@@RED-WOLF-88 yeah, it's slightly smaller, but very close to stock. Triggers also have a bit shorter pull than an xbox one controller. Overall, I've been using it alot. Also paired it with the scuff universal thumbstick on the right. If, like me, you think the xbox one controller is a great size/shape. This will be comfortable.

@@Volker_A4 weird question. But what screw size would I need to unscrew this controller?

@@THEGM1234 Torx Tr6.

What should I get for fps if I really wanna guarantee being able to aim well for a long time having controller

@@Turbo-DF This one!

​@@Turbo-DFgamesir G7 SE

@@Turbo-DFif you are a serious fps gamer you this one is better as it requires less force to press the face buttons comapared to mechanical face buttons

I noticed this the other night and immediately bought some xbox concave thumbsticks and like you said it's a game changer. It made an almost perfect controller even better.

is the tension on the sticks better than standard series x controller?

@@RED-WOLF-88 I would say they feel tighter and snap back into position better. They also feel a fair amount shorter.

Do you know which kontrol freak is compatible with the joysticks ps or xbox?

@@ikonicmedia6294 it's PS5 kontrol freek but since you can pull the faceplate off you can also pull the thumbsticks off totally as well. I don't like the hybrid concave/convex thumbsticks so I bought some xbox concave thumbsticks and now the almost perfect controller is even better.

still good?

You’re complaining about a thumbnail? Lol

Wait until july 18th, thats when the g7 se releases it has hall affect sensors.

Have a great day 👋

You’re welcome, and that’s cool you were able to activate the gamepass code !

So how's it going?

My pleasure!

I've been looking for a good controller to use for steam gaming, do you use this for PC?

@@jonservo I do, play mostly forza and mw2 with it. would recommend for the prize

Edit: I’ve sent the controller back to Gamesir, the right trigger was sticky when it’s pushed all the way in. They wanted it returned so I did. Bought a elite 2 and I’m not looking back at Gamesir for now

@@Polyodon I ended up going with the 8bitdo ultimate Bluetooth and Wi-Fi since it would work with my pc and switch

@@jonservo Can you use it with an Xbox?

I think he just posted a video about this one today.

If this was wireless, that would be sick

Thank you, you too !

Glad you like them!

@Gamer Heaven yes I do thank you 😊 think I'm gonna try the victim controller cause I like the pdp controllers!

The Rematch is a solid controller for the money! But I'm excited to try the G7 for the mechanical buttons.

@@ji1293 looking forward to your update🙌🏼

I have the controller, the software hair triggers actually deactivates as long as you are "releasing" the trigger it doesn't have to go all the way up. I see no reviewers reviewing this excellent smart feature thoroughly yet, its actually supper smart and its as fast as a physcial stop, if not, even faster.

true controller like this, power a etc been rlly pushing the limit at 100 dollar price points, tbh i hope some of the bigger ones like scuff feel the pressure

What kontrol freaks u using?

@@HawkNocturnal the inferno ones for the switch. The G7 thumbstick is too wide for Xbox kontrol freeks

Can whe use the sticks from instinc pro on the g7 ?

I love the long domed sticks from instinc pro

@@maikelstapper4347 unfortunately you can’t remove the sticks on the G7. Just add kontrol freeks.

Holy crap thank you for the heart I look up to u so much you taught me a lot about scuf battle beaver aim and evil I’ve been wondering this what’s the best ps4 pro controller you can recommend

How are those PDP controllers? The cheaper powera ones always feel off in the analog sticks lol

Yep, for the price it's amazing value but I'd still rather pay an extra $30 for the 8bitdo controller.

Hall sensors are extremely susceptible to external fields, the magnetic faceplate would've interfered with left stick based on magnet placement. Based on magnet placement around the left stick, there's no orientation of the stick where a sensor wouldn't be interfered with. Rearranging the magnets could also cause some amount of issue with how the faceplate adheres, you don't want a portion lifting off from the controller, and alternate placements have issues considering the magnets here are on standoffs; there's a reason why all the magnets are in locations that wouldn't interfere with other components, and why putting a central magnet would require an entire redesign of the controller. Hall sensors are also overrated, and are more of a marketing buzz than an actual solution. Sega did hall sensors two and a half decades ago, and they weren't ahead of their time. Sony figured out inductance sensor sticks over a decade ago, though they were fairly primitive by modern designs. Hall sensors are also susceptible to voltage drift, age, and sensor alignment accuracy; all issues, including the aforementioned external magnetic field susceptibility, inductive sensors can get around. GuliKit, the singular supplier of hall stick design, doesn't actually care about fixing the issue, they just have a source of cheap and abundant hall sensors, probably a typical situation of a warehouse looking to move stagnant stock to open room for stock that'll actually move, and modified the typical ALPS stickbox design to make it work, and now apparently the JoyCon FPC module as well. If GK actually cared about fixing limitations, there's better solutions than two discrete hall sensors, again the alignment accuracy issue which now compounds itself, can be fixed with a multi-axis hall sensor as a first step, or moving to inductive position sensors to get around _all_ of the downsides of hall sensors. But no company is actually looking into this, even though it's fairly simple, again Sony figured it out over a decade ago with a very primitive design, modern solutions are simpler; because no company actually _cares_ about fixing the issue, thus it's nothing but marketing buzz for a technology that is lackluster. Anyone within the academia of magnetometry will tell you the exact same things. There's also potential for other technology like optoelectronics, optical time of flight sensors can do distance measuring, certain materials of spectral translucency can be used as a variable thickness light blocker with a certain spectrum of LED and matched photodiode/phototransistor, similarly there are position sensitive detectors that're fancier photodiodes with two anodes for an analog range that can be used with a slit plate to have accurate light placement on the sensor, these PSDs also come in a two axis variant, there's also some other ideas that can be darts thrown at a wall; but again, _no company actually cares about fixing the issue,_ and this is why we won't see actual development of this stuff, even though it's relatively simple concepts that only need to be scaled and implemented to fit the package, which is more reason to believe that hall sticks are marketing buzz, because they're still so utterly inferior to a proper alternative. Are hall sticks a better alternative to the current situation, sure, but so would ALPS not overrating their potentiometers to where they fail within a month of use, because drift was never a widespread issue until ALPS started cutting corners. And the thing is, inductive position sensors aren't that expensive at all, optoelectronics are currently a bit more expensive but that's because they don't have an economic scale within this segment of the components industry, which circles back to _why_ I think GK is doing hall sticks, they found a very cheap source of abundant sensors, such as buying out stagnant warehouse stock as warehousing real estate is more valuable to whoever owns said warehouse, and they're currently at a scale where this source won't dry up before they need to buy into a proper supply chain. People really need to open their eyes and realize these things, and actually push for a better solution rather than buying into marketing buzz.

@@xaytana yeah nice reply...however if we keep bitching about it online, companies will see the demand and try to capitalize on that... Which gulikit and 8bitdo are reaping rewards from.. so maybe they'll continue to make that design better... Now that they're getting more money than not making the product............. Don't buy into the hype, cell phones will never be practical! Don't buy one!!!

​@@Raven.Bloodrot hahahahaha no, it's the worst choice You could've choose,i had two and both became unusable After a week,the software Just makes the sticks go crazy and unaccurate

You don’t need 4 paddles bruh

@@aidengrimes5216 maybe, but I want them 😂

there are downsides to it too. For example, mechanical buttons are more prone to double clicking!

I need a new controller fore a while but have not been able do pick one haha. My sticks are loose and screaming with stick drifts. I think this G7 will be the one. So many other controller looks fancy with light and stuff, that its just silly. I dont care about look but the performance. Good thing is technology have moved rapidly the last years, so controller at this price range are good.

They just released their new controller. It's called GameSir T4 Kaleid. It has hall effect sticks.

​@@gegenrechts2456 sorry we're talking about controller for XBOX btw 6month of my G7 still no stick drift and test result 0.00002 for both stick, best budget ever and better than elite shit one😂

@@gabrielsmith4082 Yep, best 3rd party controller in my opinion and I tried many.

@@gabrielsmith4082 Does it still have the same drift?

Can you explain what do you mean, i just ordered this gamepad.

Dude everything from Razor is a overpriced peace of shit and always been, it's just FACT!

Hi captain hope you're enjoying it! I'm interested in that controller, is it worth is for FPS shooters?

@@williamelfuelte yes totally beat money I spent for a wired brother

​@@CapChrisdoes it work for Xbox series x or s

PDP rematch might have a different slight edge in slight overclock ability with a similar stock performance.

It's $40 and beats the shit outta of any other controller for Xbox though, though it is a shame there's no hall effect thumbsticks.

Also recently got the Gambit and noticed that annoying deadzone right off the bat. Such a shame because without that one issue it would easily be the best overall controller under $200. Turned me off from trying out their new PlayStation and the Rematch, as I’m guessing they have the same built-in unadjustable deadzone.

lol, it happens

I take the comment back now ive used it its no good if you are already used to the elite 😂 no good for me anyway

g7 for sure both the spectra and enhanced wired by powera are complete garbage trust me ive owned 5+ and out of the box stick drift or drift within a week tops is pretty much a guarantee

@@jake-ut8se Thanks 👍

He was testing it with raw mode that's why

Or just replace the stick's from Xbox as I did

PowerA feels cheap as fuck.. Elite 2.. I haven’t been lucky bought 4 all was somewhat faulty straight out of the box. I’m still trying to find a perfect controller.. Seems kinda impossible. I think ASUS will come out with one this year the raikiri pro. That looks pretty damn good imo.

Yes I will

@@GamerHeavenOfficial heads up captain ive owned over 5 of them over the past year and they are riddled with stick drift problems often out of the box if not after a few weeks max.

@@jake-ut8se Do you have the gamesir G7? And have you experienced stick drift with it?

Same happened with me but the on right side.

same

I just glued some on back of mine works great

Honestly, this controller is cheap enough for me to take apart and mod the triggers myself. Just need to fit a small rubber block in the triggers and enable the hair triggers in software.
