Microsoft Elite Controller - Tips & Tricks?

[ODogg]

So my wife got me a Microsoft Elite Controller for my birthday and I'm loving it!! But I wondered if any of you guys who had it had any tips and tricks about how to best utilize it as I want to make sure I'm using it to its full potential.

So far while my buddy was here we just removed the back flippers (it bothered him) but was wondering how you guys utilize those??? Is there a way to assign L3 / R3 to those flippers?

And any recommendations on the sticks and stick length? The only thing I've found so far is the longest stick works well for me in the right stick position for Rainbow Six Siege.

Let me know you guys input on how you're using yours plz!

You can assign those paddles to anything you wish. Just download the ELite Controller app on the XB store. From there you can map it all and you can mess with the deadzone, trigger locks, left and right stick precision.

I use the default left stick and the high stick on the right for more precise movement.

Only game I use the paddle is on Halo 5 due to the need for melee attacks that are very effective.

The left and right stick I moved it in the app from default to aggressive to remove deadzones

That's what I was going to do, move the melee attack to a paddle for Rainbow Six Siege. I looked at the software for a little bit when my friend was here but didn't take the time to go through it (as he just wanted to go ahead and get to gaming) but I will have to take another look at that.

those are trigger stops which cuts the trigger length so you can shoot quicker in shooters. I use it only for shooters online

so should I leave the switch on top or put the switch at the bottom?

leave it default which is the top. When playing shooters lower it so it cuts off half the distance on the trigger.
