News: Upgrading your Victrix Pro BFG Controller
It’s a new module that upgrades any Victrix Pro BFG controller with Hall Effects for the analog sticks. It makes things work magnetically instead of physically, which removes all internal contacts and slippage over time.
The result? No more drift problems.
Eventually, I’d imagine future modules offering customizable button presses using Hall Effects, like Turtle Beach’s Vulcan II TKL Pro gaming keyboard, where you can dictate how deep a key is pressed before it reacts (from a slight touch to a deep press). We can only hope.
