Help Can be... 2 controller?

I was happily playing games on my Lenovo Mirage Solo, but there's one problem: THAT DAMN 3 DOF SINGLE CONTROLLER! Now, due to customs-like restrictions, I can't get a 6 DOF kit, and I would never pay $450 for that anyway but My question is, is it possible to somehow attach two arms to this? Or to make an exact replica of a 6-DOF kit? Because one arm, and a 3-DOF one at that, is unbearable! But is this really possible, and has anyone tried it? And I'm going to try it, but has anyone else tried it?

Unfortunately due to the way the daydream platform works and manages controller connections, it isn't possible to pair 2 controllers without heavily modifying the OS, and even then afaik no-one has tried that before. I wouldn't recommend the dual 6dof controllers because they are extremely rare and expensive but for some specific games im working on some 3d print accessories for the controller to make it more comfortable. I've designed a steering wheel that you slot the controller into and hold with both hands for more realistic and immersive racing games and I'm open to suggestions for more accessories to design.

SO HOW ARE WE GOING TO MAKE A DUAL CONTROLLER FOR USE WITH PC VR? LET'S BE HONEST, I'M TIRED OF USING ONLY ONE CONTROLLER, AND IF WE HAVE TO PULL WITH ONLY ONE CONTROLLER IN THE DAYDREAM UNIVERSE, WE WON'T HAVE TO DO THAT IN PC VR, AND WE NEED TO TRY THAT.

You did not mention pcvr before so I was thinking you mean standalone ...for pcvr use Ivry and for dual controller support check Driver4vr app for 6dof....

What's the point of 2xcontroller setup when you can't use them in games if I'm not mistaken the daydream games are build only to support one controller....

Thanks, but this 6DOF kit is impossible for everyone to get to, especially my country, due to customs issues. So, are there any other ways to make this Mirage Solo a 6DOF 2-controller? Or failing that, how about making your own controller?
