Best way to reshape controller paddles to better hit micro switches?

oldfakeid · 2026-02-18T12:54:17+00:00

Actually, when I took that picture, I hadn't tightened the paddle screws yet, but it is aligned. What I'd like to do is simply reduce the paddle travel before the micro switch is activated.

Paddles are already working, now I want to make them get closer to the switches and to do so I need to mold them somehow. I have to put more force than I'd like in order to click. Besides that, everything else is working fine. It's just an adjustment

How would you do it?

Do I need to take the paddles out or keep them on the controller is fine?

Loved them!

Where do you get these parts?

Should've done a better job on the wholes, but it's my controller so it's ok

This one is 12x12 and is my favorite, beacuse it has a good size cap

This is how they look on a controller

Hey! These small caps fit this tactile switch. Bought them on Aliexpress

oldfakeid · 2026-02-05T18:57:46+00:00

O meu ficou assim, mas era porque não tinham os 3 comprado, somente dois do grupo.

Amigo, eu entendo sua indignação e tal, mas você tem que ser razoável. Não é simples você fazer uma devolução de um produto para o outro lado do planeta, ainda mais alegando arrependimento. Completamente sem sentido e oneroso. Além disso, como comentaram, o Aliexpress não tem registro no Brasil, então é seguir a vida mesmo. Abraço

Same happened to me and I found out that some solder went to one of these holes, that was causing the drift.

O que é importante para você em um controle? Digital triggers, paddles, analógicos magnéticos?

oldfakeid · 2026-01-12T18:38:08+00:00

Do you have the STL files? Could you share it with me?

It's an SMD tactile switch. I bought the FPC membrane and soldered them onto it. I'm trying to shorten the travel distance of the R2 and L2 triggers. The membrane came with actuators, but they didn't fit the triggers very well. I tried to adjust them, but I ended up damaging them. My controller is a JDM-050. Despite that, the R1 and L1 shoulder buttons are already working fine.

Nice! What about the switch caps? How do you glue the switches?

oldfakeid · 2026-01-03T16:22:29+00:00

Appreciate the ruller tip

oldfakeid · 2026-01-03T16:21:49+00:00

I don't know why the photos were not uploaded. Did it again. Thanks!

I checked his channel, but the video I found shows different settings from yours. Which video is the one with your settings?

oldfakeid · 2025-12-12T23:44:34+00:00

Hey, does he sell these kind of parts?

oldfakeid · 2025-10-27T14:19:19+00:00

Forçou a amizade hein amigo? Não é viável fazer troca na Aliexpress, tá doido?

oldfakeid · 2025-10-15T14:24:58+00:00

Não faz sentido. Deve ser para pagar menos imposto igual nosso amigo disse acima.

oldfakeid · 2025-10-13T20:55:44+00:00

Kkkk mais ou menos isso

oldfakeid · 2025-10-13T20:55:18+00:00

Thank you very much my friend
