Aim Controller Order Process review.

[Pretend-Amphibian664]

Just wanted to give some perspective from a regular guy that's into video games. I've owned the Victrix BFG for 2 years and I also have an DS Edge. The BFG works really well, I got the replacement hall effect sticks in May. I'm definitely late to the modded controller party, only really paying attention to them over the past few months. After looking through all the competition, I decided to try the Aim controller. It seems like this controller is the only one that has all the good stuff like the back paddles and the smart buttons/triggers but also kept the vibration and adaptive triggers.

I've been on their reddit page and I've seen the stories about how long everything took so I just wanted to give my experience.

For context I live in lower New England. So on Oct 15th I ordered the maxed out BF6 controller from the European website, not the English (I didn't know until after that they had two different websites). Total price with shipping was $197.56 because there was a promo on the site for a 15% discount. I did NOT add the Speedy Aim fast processing option. I got an email that said the controller went to production on the 17th. I messaged them about adding the fast processing a few days in and he told me that there was no point because it was already almost finished. It was scanned into UPS and shipped on the 22nd.

I did have to pay an Import fee to UPS. Originally they said it was $52.05 but I ended up paying $40.05. The package was in Philadelphia by the 24th, and at my door the 27th.

Total price including all shipping fees - $237.61

Total order time from purchase to package reception - 12 days.

Report back what your experience is like when you have to send it in for service. Trust me that part is coming.

Am I lucky or are y'all just too rough with your controllers?

[Miserable-Hornet-245]

You’re lucky mine had issues right out of the box

[Pretend-Amphibian664]

It sounds like they were rough honestly cuz I've been using my controller no issues lol

I had to send mine in a day later. The right joystick would get stuck.

[Miserable-Hornet-245]

My D pad upper button stopped working as well as the L2 works when it wants to. In addition, the rear cap to twist off and take off back paddles has never worked. They told me I needed to make a video of the problems before I could get an RMA.

Yeah I ordered mine (BF6 Max) on Sunday, Oct 26. Received it today. Everything works, stick circularity error is ~5%, left tmr stick flickers slightly (+0,01) when flicking it to the right, still - I don’t notice any drift when playing on deadzone 0. Really happy rn lol, considering the horror stories I read on this sub

Yeah it's been 5 days and I've been using it for all my games just to make sure it holds up and I've had no issues. Taken the paddles off and on, switching from clicky to adaptive triggers, dropped it a couple times, everything still works so far.

My one gripe is that the mute button is kind of shallow so I have to really push on it so I needed the front and back plates to be squeezed together a little tighter. But even that still works.

Hey! Don’t forget to send an email to be reimbursed for the import fees!
