eXtremeRate Textured Green HOPE Programable Remap Kit for Xbox Series X/S Controller, Upgrade Boards & Redesigned Back Shell & Side Rails & Back Buttons for Xbox Core Controller

I was really excited to upgrade my controller and I can solder in my sleep. It didn’t even work. Complete waste of money.

Very easy! Definitely recommend.

This is a very reasonably priced mod and it works really well. All of the parts are well made and the youtube guide video is clear and well thought out. Extremerate has excellent customer service. I wouldnt not recommend this as your first soldering attempt, but if you have some experience with soldering, its a great kit

Sadly my controller started triple tapping buttons when the mod was installed. So, I had to remove it. After having this installed and then having to remove it, I can say I cant see playing some games w/o it. I have zero plans to risk buying another one currently till I can address the failure point. Im leaving my first review intact but would like to make a note. *The removal was easier than expected but I recommend using proper pry tools and a low temp setting on your heat mat/gun to soften the adhesive and make it come off w/o damaging the tfp/ribbon connectors. My First Review is below. PROS Great upgrade! CONS Can make future controller repairs considerably more difficult. Super easy to figure out. I was able to install it w/o even needing to look up directions online. If work on Cellphones or Macs running traces and dealing with multiple screw sizes all over isnt a big deal. (This is way easier) Build time is about 20 Minutes. Its plastics designed very well, but not the best quality of plastics. -Might become a bit brittle and crack near stress points over time. So, dont over tighten those screws. My main gripe is with how its is made to be permanent. It makes future service of the controller way more difficult than it should be. Like if it develops drift for example. A simple redesign of the flex-board could eliminate this by moving the w2w to the center and run it up between the wireless ants. It might have room to use a single ribbon this way. (would loose the Tester feature) But that way the tape wouldnt need removed should you ever need to replace your joys. or button caps. The price of this kit + a controller is close to that of a refurbished elite controller or even more than a used first gen elite controller. It never hurts to think about serviceability. Anyways Great product if you already have a spare controller laying about. It might be worth the extra few bucks to get an actual elite series as they are fully serviceable and can be exchanged for new ones while under warranty should they break.

Great kit. It includes everything you need except for a soldering iron. You might want some tweezes or a pair of pliers and some no-clean flux as well. Watch the video on youtube in full, then follow the steps and you will be able to do it. The tricky part is removing and re-attaching the antenna connectors, and making sure the wires are routed properly when putting pieces back together. The didnt include the double sided tape or the black wire-tape that are shown in the video, but they werent required. Works well, the buttons are easy to map. Only thing I wish is that they allowed you to map key combos to a button instead of single keys, but I guess that could be considered cheating? I dont know, but it would be useful.

You can get a core elite for $110...
