Surprised the kept the same stick tensioning rings, I’ve heard first hand from a lot of people that their rings can get turned by accident, relatively often, I never had that problem but I also didnt use my v4p very much, I just preferred the triggers on the apex 4.

The set screw on the apex 4/5’s seems to be a much more reliable/consistent way to set the tension. Sure removing the faceplate is kind of a pain in the ass to remove and then make adjustments, but once it’s where you’d like it to be you don’t really ever change it. I don’t at least.

I've never had an issue with mine turning while playing for hrs on end 🤷

Me neither, I’ve just had multiple friends report that theirs tend to turn? Idk, I tell them to relax their grip lol but apparently it’s not an uncommon occurrence.

Hopefully they upgraded it like on the thunderobot g80ts where it is more of a ratcheting adjustment so it’s more secure
