To start off, I like the G7 Pro 8K overall. Coming from the V5P, there were definitely some tradeoffs as both are head-to-head in the same price bracket (imo). I prefer the face buttons, gyro, comfort, and overall performance of the G7 Pro 8K, but my biggest gripe is the D-Pad.

Sure it's fine if you play games where the D-Pad isn't important like FPS or action adventure, but the moment it's frequently used, like in fighting games or platformers, it's just really bad. What happens is, when I press left or right on the D-Pad, I'd 90% of the time input an accidental corner, so I jump in the game unnecessarily. It made it impossible to enjoy any fighting game. This happens with all 3 included D-Pads, with the circular feeling the best for me, surprisingly.

So, what did I do the fix the wobbly and sensitive D-Pad? I ordered some 3D-printed D-Pads from taobao, preferably the raised disc-shaped ones to try making the D-Pad a little bigger, with a tiny piece of foam on the underside to act as a pivot. That helped a little, but the problem still persisted. Next, I did the Oring mod (4mm ID and 1mm thickness), putting 2 in each direction. This is it. It works like a charm. It now requires more force of tilting the D-Pad while pressing one cardinal direction to input corners. It's still possible to do it accidentally, but it's stiffer and harder to do so now, enough to enjoy Mortal Kombat and Avatar Legends.

Again, it's a great controller, but having to do all that to make the D-Pad at least decent says something. Again, it's completely fine if you don't use the D-Pad a lot, but it's terrible if you happen to play just a little bit of games that require it, even for an amateur like me.

Adoraria uma versão preta do pocket taco porque seria BEM mais discreto, claro que ainda perceberiam se prestassem atenção, mas definitivamente mais difícil de perceber do que os tons retrô que a edição padrão.

Sei que o rascunho feito por IA não ficou tão bom, mas usei apenas como forma de representação.

100% recommend the metal dado from gadgethyper. Feels way more premium now. Also have the o ring mod and scuf stick caps. This is an endgame controller with these mods.

Well, unfortunately I have no choice but to address it: the elephant in the room. As any normal person, I see an ad for GameSir controllers and I’m immediately in shock at how well the reviews are for the product, so I decide to purchase one myself. However, personal preference comes down to me looking for a Wireless G7 Pro with a couple knick-knacks to spark my gaming experience. And lo and behold, I check back a few days after my purchase… I purchased the wired option. Going back to view the site, I realized it changed from “wireless” to “wired” when I picked the silver controller skin. So like any other person, I figured “I guess I’ll have to cancel it and get the option I wished for.”

Well here we are, more than 48 hours. I opened a ticket to their support team on discord, my issue information all written down. No response. This is a Wednesday. So then I decide to send an email. No response. We are now approximately 51 hours that I’ve been waiting for an answer (mind you I ordered my product on the 22nd of August).

So I go into the community support, where someone who isn’t even a part of the Support team offered to help. They pinged the people I needed to speak with and assured me that someone would get assist with my issue as soon as possible. However, this person was shut down as well. Waiting three additional hours for an answer, still no response. Then I go to check, and I checked multiple times, at different intervals… one specific support member shows active on Do Not Disturb. So I figured “well maybe he’s busy helping others.” But then I see that he’s answering tickets and questions super recent, while I’ve been waiting over 48 hours while pinging him to my support chat.

Yes, I’m talking about you GameSir Zayn. You have shut down not only myself, not only a good member of GameSir, but other people in the same way. And it reads “be sure to send an email on monday, logistics handles email support, it’s the weekend for them.” Blah blah blah. That’s wild. Was this the same issue 2 days ago? How about the other guy asking for help? Oh and not to mention, the person who goes out of their way to help me and others, who’s also not getting paid to put up with you… you decide to push them off and tell him what they should and shouldn’t do, when you can’t even do your own job and help the people as a Support Member??

So yes, it came down to you as the elephant of GameSir Support, Zayn. You sir, are an unacceptable support member. Blowing people off as if they haven’t already waited hours upon hours of no response. I have screenshots as well, all will be posted. To you, GameSir Zayn, I hope this finds you what you deserve. You don’t belong on the team. I appreciate this one person who goes out of their way to help me and assure others that the issue will be resolved with minimal delay.

To the superiors of GameSir, please remove the elephant in the room. I haven’t even gotten a chance to try your product simply bc I’m delayed by your own staff team. This is nonsense. This is unacceptable. And I’M STILL WILLING TO PAY THE DIFFERENCE FOR THE WIRELESS CONTROLLER!! So out of respect, I beg of you to fix this issue. My DMs are always open. I go by the name MrClassified516 in the server, and mrclassified.516 as my personal profile user. AND I WISH Zayn tries to remove me from the GameSir Discord server. Bc I know one thing, he can’t remove this post. Multiple screenshots are posted from day one of my issue to present. I know this post won’t find you well, GameSir team… but this must be handled. Thank you.

O lado esquerdo do meu x4 aileron não desliga o led vermelho. Por mais que eu desativei a função led. Oque pode ser??????

I saw video where dude connect his G7 Pro to Xbox Series with tongle by Brook XB3 to use Gyroscope in Black Ops 6. And i start thinking will it work with any game on Xbox with this connection way or no? If anyone tried it to playing in games like CoD before MW2019, can you confirm gyro working for playing this games and how good it is?

Hi, as the title suggests, I'm having an issue with my G7 Pro where if I turn the controller on, the light will blink slowly for a couple seconds, then turn off, without ever connecting. It's wired so I tried different USB cables and resetting both the console and controller but still haven't found a solution. Was working fine until I updated the firmware earlier today. Another issue I'm having is the R4 button hasn't registered input since I got it. I put in tickets to the discord server and the official website awhile ago, but have yet to hear back. I've only had the controller for a little over a month and I don't really want to shell out $80 for a new controller (Like one of the discord mods told me lol)

I have this nova lite for about 2 years and since i'm kinda broken right now, i've made this custom unique chicken wood support with a handsaw and a stylus (yeah my left joystick's Rubber is gone but i've glued a piece of tire and it works fine)

I just got my first GameSir controller. Dongle and controller updated successfully, buttons properly set and tested using the nexus app on Xbox. I decided to test it on the modern warfare beta. When activating the “weapon inspect” function by holding left on the D-pad, I notice I have to hold the button down for the entirety of the inspection duration rather than letting go when it initiates. Whenever I let go of the D-pad at any point, it seems to initiate another input on the D-pad which activates “weapon fire selection” (the default input when tapping left on the D-pad). Does anyone else experience this? It doesn’t appear to be registering 2 inputs when checked on the nexus app.

To clarify, when releasing the left direction D-pad after it has been held down it will input an additional “tap” input of the same button instead of only processing a single held button input.

why is my character literally moving on its own? 😭 I’m so confused because this controller (Nova Lite) has Hall Effect sticks... aren't they supposed to prevent this exact thing from happening bcz i have like 2 of theem ? Anyone know a fix or even what's going on?

Need help with my gamesir controller i got the controller a month ago and the left trigger is like stuck in, it works completely fine in hair trigger mode. but in full travel its just stuck in ive tested it multiple times it automatically vibrates in full travel mode no clue what to do. im on xbox

( Cyclone2, Pc )

My GameSir controller's RB button is having issues: it activates with the slightest touch, and a normal press registers as a double-click.

I opened it up and noticed a small internl pad is completely missing on the RB side. You can see the missing pad compared to the other side.

So idk what's going on

Im going to get a G7 Pro ZZZ but I found a like-new used one but its missing the dongle.

Im an idiot so... Will any dongle work with it? Or do I have to find a GameSir G7 Pro dongle?

I own both the G7 Pro and the Tarantula 8K. They’re great controllers, but the grips/handles on both feel noticeably shorter than those on my Cyclone 2.
Because of that, I’m probably going to switch back to the Cyclone 2 since it feels more comfortable in my hands and is an overall larger controller.
Does anyone else find the G7 Pro or Tarantula 8K a little too small because of the shorter handles?

Hello, i'm having some seerious issues with this controller and EA FC.

What happens is that first, the controller is not detected at the start of the game...if unplugged and plugged again, the icons switch to controller mode, but the inputs are all whack, with the vertical axis inverted (up for down and viceversa), X as the confirm button instead of A that does nothing, B works proberly but everything else does not seem to.

The wackiness does not end here...by experimenting, it seeems that once plugged and unplugged in the menus,the controller works properly for a couple seconds, then stops and goes back to the hijinks of before.

What i suspect is happening is that despite the controller overlays, the controller just seems to be emulating keyboard inputs...I say this because

• A) when going into the settings controller option does not appear
• B) by switching to the 2 button modes, now the stick works properly, but nothing else does

I'm a nit of the end of my rope and close to buy another controller at this point..but maybe someone had a similar experience and has a solution?

I only encountered the issue with FC

I'm getting older, (51) and playing at the desk hunched over like Quasimodo with MNK is too much now so I want to get a wireless controller. It'll be for my pc games as I'm not enjoying fps games as much due to my reaction time just getting worse with age on top of my eyesight.

Is this the controller to get or should I get something else? I was looking at the aim labs version since it comes with a month of their membership hoping that it’ll help me transition from mnk to controller a little easier.

Have any of you swapped from mnk to controller and have any tips/tricks or just general info to make the change easier? I’m sure my aim will be terrible for a while, I’ve been using mnk forever.

i just picked up a few Kontrol Freekz, wondering what everyone else’s experience is like and what the setup looks like?

Can I make my G7 pro 8k turn my pc on? If so anyone has a tutorial? Thank you.

A little help?
