Using Quadstick on PC

[JimQuad Stick]

Hi,

I just have a few questions. I have checked the User Manual and the FAQ's/YouTube videos etc, but there are just a few things I am unsure about: 

1. If I want to use the Quadstick on PC as a gaming controller, is it just plug and play? (I know I might want a script for each game, but am just wondering what the actual initial set up is)

2. Do I need an adaptor, such as a Titan Two?

3. Can the Quadstick plug straight into my PC, or is it wireless connection only? If wireless, I assume I might need a bluetooth module? 

Thank you, any help would be much appreciated.

1. Yeah, it's plug and play. There is software that may need to be installed depending on the game. The QMP 4 beta on this forum or xbox360ce.

2. No, that's for consoles

3. You can use a wired usb connection or wireless. I think QS is wired by default unless you specify when ordering that you want wireless connectivity.

The only thing I would add to what Steve said is that USB reports 1000 times per second and Bluetooth reports 20 times per second.  USB is literally 50 times faster than Bluetooth, so the response is smoother and quicker.

The Quadstick is primarily a USB controller.  The Bluetooth is secondary.   For gaming, the Bluetooth game controller is not recognized by the majority of games.   It was intended as a second channel for voice commands or controlling a tablet or phone.
