The Hori PS4 VLX thread

I took out the Hayabusa/Falcon matte buttons & about to put them in the VLX Kuro (in addition to a black/grey/white marble swirl 38mm balltop) when it gets here on Mon/Tues. Translucent red silent Sanwa components (in addition to a matching 38mm balltop) went in the Hayabusa. Have pics a couple pages back. Might as well go for it all & get the Hayabusa. You’re already halfway there to owning both PS4 VLX’S, LOL!

Does anyone in here have the Haybusa Premium? if so what is the box made of? is it painted plastic or brushed metal?

The VLX Hayabusa? Made out of the exact same materials as every other VLX Metal/plastic.

Go figure… I placed an order for a Splitframe XL bag today and a new one was announced… Sent them an email to see if i can switch my order.

Typical!

This is what I’ll be doing to my OG VLX’s.

I have a 360 and a ps3 one (that’s both dual modded with a cthulu and 360 fightpad respectively), so what I will do is “dual mod” them with an Imp V1 and make the UFB as the “primary” PCB. Doing it this way should mean I’d never have a need to “swap” over to the base PCB, but I should be able to piggy back the signals so I don’t have to hack the IDE cable for the buttons/stick

I just saw it, $5 dollars more!

I just wish they’d make a plain black bag without any designs on it.

Such a high price for a bag…

That Shadaloo bag looks better than the other one atleast imo.

I would be a bit uncomfortable with the Shadaloo one on the street, or at an airport… :frowning: The original model is fine.

The only problem is it ships on June 1st…!

There should be a way to remove that shadoloo logo depending on the way its put onto the bag. I think a common option is to use a heat gun and then start peeling the logo off. Though it might still leave a ghost of the logo. The area of the logo will be darker than the rest of the bag so it would still be there just not as visible.

just got home, look at what was waiting for me

oooh boy

Grown ass man with a skull on his bag is what I was getting at. :disappointed: Rather walk around with the original, even though I don’t like red on my bags.

Welcome to the club! Take pictures when you open it!

I would have to agree, at least the splitframe looks like video editing equipment…

Congrats! I’m assuming you know you can’t use both Hori pads on the Wii U unless you play in LAN mode?

So, this is my first real fight stick… and I’m fairly new to fighting games (PC RTS player)… but even as a noob I feel this stick is exceptionally well put together. I’ve really enjoyed it so far and in less than a week I feel more confident on it than my ps4 controller. I have a question though, do you notice a little play or slack in the joystick while in center position? It’s not a lot, but you can rotate slightly and feel there’s a bit of free play. Are there modifications that can tighten that or make the movement a bit more firm? I’m not sure if this is the same for all joysticks because I’m not very experienced with many.

I just can’t stop saying “damn, this thing is beautiful!!!”

Pics of my stick/buttons swap

God, this thing is beautiful!!

Yuck, the door has that cancer thing some others have posted about.

Swapped the Kuro’s for some Silent Sanwa’s

Took out the Hayabusa and installed a Silent Sanwa 2014 - 2nd Gen.+ Octagonal Restrictor Gate

Also swapped the original actuator and spring to a Kowal 1mm Oversize and 2lb tension spring.
I love how dashing feels now!!!

My stick collection.

Oops, now I know…hahaha =)
