HTC Vive Base Station

I had bought the cosmos elite that came with two base stations and bought two more for my brother. Out of the 4 base stations 1 has this odd rotary sound struggling like a fishing rod that just annoys me, I may have to return it. If you plan to play vrchat, 2 base stations is all you need but yes the software can support 3 but the 4th one would have issues getting in sync making the software tell you that you have two many base stations and to only use two. You have to place these opposite from each other and press the channel button located on the back, to set one to channel (b) and the other to (c). Im not sure what channel (A) is for but Ill have to Google it.

Theres no problem Ive had in particular with the base stations, but I did have to order this replacement because mine broke. I didnt have the tripods yet and so my station was sitting on other high up places like a bookshelf when it fell off. Just from falling about 6~ feet and hitting carpet was enough to break one of these.

Great

So I got 2 base station around last month, They both are working find for me until around this month, one of the base station give me a fault 3 error. I call the support for help and they say they can’t do anything .....so is there any other way I can return 1 base station and get my money back?

Works well

You only need TWO base stations. If you buy THREE, you would have to learn how to connect the 3rd base station to VM aka Virtual Machine, which I learned/heard from others, is painstaking and a waste of time. Make you set the base stations high up on the corners, or you will deal with tons of tracking issues. So please understand that if you want 3 base stations, then just buy the 2.0 HTC VIVE base stations instead. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Amazon shouldnt update these base stations as this is how the base station turns out to be broken and doesnt provide tracking or any working ability

So one of my base stations died and I had to buy 2 of these because the base station I had before was ver.1.0 so I got to spend another $150. I am so glad i had the opportunity to give this company another $300 on top of the $300 for the trackers on top of the $500 for the headset. I mean man this is great. :)

I got it and it wasn’t even turning it on.
