The joysticks use a direct bus connection to minimize internal processing delay, and tension can be manually adjusted for a stiffer feel.

Triggers offer a dual-mode mechanism with a physical switch, toggling between linear Hall-effect mode for racing games and micro-switch mode with 2mm travel for faster actuation in shooters.

ABXY buttons use optical micro-switches that actuate via infrared light, rated for 10 million presses to prevent double-clicking and wear.

The D-pad has a floating, omnidirectional design and includes two interchangeable caps: a traditional cross and a circular dish.

The controller is powered by a 1,200mAh battery and features laser-etched rubber grips on the front and back.

H-bridge motors in the grips and triggers provide adjustable vibration feedback, and a six-axis gyroscope enables motion controls.
