    It works well but the A button is intermittent already after only a couple of months of light use (8-12 hours a week). No issues with the grips yet like the first elite. The elite series 2 joysticks do work so that's a plus.

    Pinnacle of gaming controllers. Textured grips for a nice comfortable feel. Adjustable stick tension for increased/decreased sensitivity. Back paddles that provide extra buttons which in turn give more versatility. Trigger stops that give you a more intense and short haired pull for a the gamers who need that split second reaction time. All in all, just an excellent gaming controller to take your performance to the next level.
