    Even microsofts more customizable so called elite controller has issues where it will just stop controlling things. Not worth the money unless you already know how to take apart and fix

    Amazing unit, but the only flaw I have run across is an issue with the trigger tension switch covers coming off. They are very tiny and easily lost.
