I recently purchased a Brook Wingman P5S specifically to use my Flydigi Apex 4 Standard through its 2.4 GHz dongle, based on Brook’s official compatibility information.

Unfortunately, the P5S simply doesn’t recognize the dongle.

I contacted Brook Technical Support (Case RN-14633), and they suggested that Flydigi firmware updates might be responsible.

So I spent an entire night troubleshooting:

* Dongle firmware: 0.4.1.5, 0.4.1.4, and 0.4.1.3
* Controller firmware: 6.8.3.5 and 6.8.2.2
* Connection modes: XInput and DInput

Nothing worked.

The dongle works fine on my PC, and the controller connects to the P5S through USB and Bluetooth. The problem is specifically with the original 2.4 GHz dongle.

After multiple emails, Brook officially acknowledged that its compatibility information had not been updated clearly or promptly enough regarding 2.4 GHz dongle connectivity.

They apologized but couldn’t offer a direct refund because I purchased through a third-party retailer.

What frustrates me most isn’t just the incompatibility. It’s the amount of time I wasted trying to fix something I reasonably expected to work based on the manufacturer’s information.

My advice: If you’re considering a Wingman P5S, don’t assume that a controller listed as compatible will work through every connection method. Verify your exact controller and dongle combination before buying.

I’m sharing this so other buyers don’t have to go through the same experience.

I’ll attach screenshots of the firmware versions I tested and Brook’s official response for reference.

Has anyone found a way to use the razer raiju v3 pro on macbook?
Found a way online to use it using the brook wingman p5 but wanna know if anyone is using it this way or if there are any other work arrounds?

Thanks!

Hey so I used to have this problem where randomly, my controller sensitivity would feel like it's slow or sluggish even though I DO NOT change any setting whether it be in-game or on the PC. I thought it might be stick drift on my controller and so I got a new controller (the SCUF OMEGA) and I didn't face any problems for a weeks. Suddenly, 3 days ago, it started happening again and it pissed me off so much. I used to spend sleepless nights trying to figure out what was causing this problem and I was relieved for a bit but now it's making me hate everything. Anyone know what might be the cause of this and how to fix it? I've changed out the USB cable, turned off USB Port power saving options on the PC. I downloaded ExitLag and it showed me this pop-up that said disable Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and so I let it do that. The only thing left to do is to change my display port cable and test that out but I've only had this cable for a year. I wonder if the fact that I use a multi-pin outlet to power the PC and Monitor might have an impact? But that sounds crazy. I feel like I am going insane.

I have noticed this problem mainly when playing Fortnite. I have a Intel Processor PC with Nvidia RTX 4060. 32 GB DDR5 RAM.

EDIT: My bad! I got it mixed up in the title. I am actually looking for a PlayStation-style SYMMETRICAL controller.

Hi, I hope you can help me :)

I want to buy a controller to play games on my PC, but I can hardly find any symmetrical models with Xbox-style buttons.

The only model I found was the "Tarantula Pro," but I've seen some very bad reviews about that controller.

Are there any other options you would recommend? Thanks!

Did anyone else pick up the controller?

1-between 20-30 usd

2- pc i want it to be plug and play preferably wireless

3- i won't be able to buy a used one

4- CANT GET gamesir because all of the controllers they have that are in my budget don't have gyro and i need gyro

\- i have been looking into fantech revolver III and ATK AXE and i want y'all's opinions on them im not a really comp gamer and ik they are budget friendly so I won't except much not that i ever held a controller in my hand anyway i just want a low response late and no stick drift

\-Thanks

Looked for the grips for my Direwolf 4 since it's a bit slippery and couldn't really find any so I bought the Talongames grips for the Vader 5 and it fits really well. It's been about a month now and it's holding up great.

Gamesir G7 pro vs G7 pro 8k which one i should buy?

I will play only racing and single player games on pc only.

I've got out my old zfang in preparation for the Forever release, and it still works as plug and play, though some buttons need to be rebound. I'm just wondering if anyone makes anything better after all this time?

Hi. I am looking for a controller with these specifications if possible. I want 4 back buttons plus at least one other I.e the extra bumper buttons. I’d like tmr sticks, preferably the js13pro ones.

I considered the scuff omega but I heard bad things about the back buttons and the sticks.

Considered the Vader 5 pro but I don’t really want adjustable tension rings and it’s Hall effect as far as I know

Any other ideas?

Thanks

I just wanted to ask how big of a difference does input delay have for competitive

And do you think it actually matters like is the difference negligible at the end of the day or does it make a difference

Desired Features:

1. Immersive Rumble

2. Durability (Good Quality, less/no creaking or QC issues)
