The Official Qanba Fightstick Thread (New products Coming)

yes, like DS4 touch pad

sorry, reply delayed.

where those sales really good? I’m kind of sad I missed those days. Wasn’t a big stick user back then.

I’m really tempted by getting the Obsidian Stick,especially if the price tag don’t change even for foreign countries (I’m in Italy). I don’t get it if the stick has a plexi or not, I’m asking this because I prefer to keep my 6 buttons layout without using button plugs. Then yeah,if this will be available in EU.

Obsidian look very good

Does look good

Agreed. I think it looks way better than the dragon. Just my opinion though.

same, I love the obsidian and I’m trying to get the money to pre order one and get that free bag. also it’s just me but I think the dragon is ugly af.

The stick on the Crystal has waaaay too much travel for me, can it be fixed with a tighter stick or spring or is it part of the Crystal’s design? (forgive my ignorance please) Aside from the huge travel i have no complaints.

Yeah. Would love to actually try out the dragon but it just doesn’t make sense to me since I don’t have the money for it right now. I’ve seen some reviews for it and most of them are positive but none of them addresses the fact that you could get a vlx for cheaper now . Can anyone here tell me the advantages of a dragon over a vlx?

I guess easier to mod and have LED lights

OK. I noticed a mic port which is pretty cool. The vlx was pretty easy to mod as well. Just unscrew three screws and you’re in. I never really understood the led craze. I ordered the obsidian, which comes with leds, so maybe that will change my mind when it comes in.

It kind of looks like the Q4 panel would fit on the Obsidian/Dragon. Can anyone confirm this for art modding purposes

That’s my only concern about the Obsidian, not just for art modding,but because of the 8 buttons. I don’t love button plugs,so I’m curious about the possibility to change the plexi if is there. Time will tell.

Plexi is not the same as Q4 (more round corner) , pretty sure Tek innovation will propose plexi remplacement soon.

I have a friend who works with laser cuts, he would do it for me. Can’t wait for this stick, if we’re lucky it comes in EU before March.

For the EU customers interested in the new sticks, I’ve emailed arcadeworlduk and they confirmed they’re going to sell them in the near future when Qanba get the EU licenses to release them.

I can’t wait,my body (and wallet) is ready.

Dragon’s weight > VLX’s weight > Every other officially licensed stick

Looks like the Obsidian’s pcb mounting is throwback… mounted beneath the control panel. Will be a problem for screw-in buttons.

How about the plexi?
