Respect to this....Got mine today and put them on. I can't play shooters without paddles and these are a good alternative to other named products. So far so good. Like you said I that I can get a feel for simply tapping the k3 and k4 buttons on the side. Flawless explanation and breakdown.
@@elijnr thats a good question. I havent tried and i am in the middle of moving so mine is packed away, as soon as i have it unpacked i will let you know! My guess is, yes, it should work. The only buttons that shouldnt (without the soddering kit) should be the stick buttons L3 and R3.
@@akaCorrupts You don't need the red wire for the dpad. The red wires is to be able to remap the touchpad. The other black cable is to remap R3 and L3. Both which require soldering. You don't need to do soldering to remap the dpad. You just have to do the installation you see in the video. Please make sure to connect the cables compatible with your control.
I deadass thought I was gonna break my controller but you helped me out so much and made it simple if anyone nervous about doing all this diy trust me this guy makes it easy jus take your time
EXCELLENT guide!! I just watched your guide once thru, then opened the box and followed step by step pausing as I went thru. Thankyou for an amazing easy to follow guide!!! And I have to say, I am thoroughly impressed with the quality of this product! Looks and feels like it came from the factory with these paddles!!! I love it!!!!!
This is THE best guide out there...I viewed at least 10+ videos in full, including the extreme rate one and this is by FAR the best...thank you SO MUCH for zooming in, that saved me when a little silicone piece fell off and i had no idea where it came from! I got this done on the first try pausing your video as needed. I feel so proud, my first time doing anything like this and thanks to your tutorial - it went PERFECTLY. You did so well, thank you
@@elijnr I'm not a professional and really wish i could help you :( i'm not the best source as this is new to me too... if it works then roll with it perhaps/just play... what *i* would do was open it back up, follow the video to back things out and start from the beginning - all the while looking at EVERY single little thing to make sure it matches the video. that's what i did when i put the kit on the first time...i paused EVERY 30secs ish...and i used a hand held magnifying glass and tweezers (in addition to what came with the kit). i wonder if the sound you hear is the speaker malfunctioning? sorry but my guess is as good as yours...good luck!
@@alert-mercy don’t worry about it. It got really annoying I tried opening it again to see but some wire cut off. I just angrily smashed the controller. I live in Africa and there’s no way to get an already made controllers. Not sure if they ship here and they’re not on aliexpress. Sucks
Aight I’ve successfully just finished putting this together and it works flawlessly great guide it was my 1st time. I decided to not cut the cables tho incase I need either or down the road I’ll have them. I just put electrical tape over the ones I wasn’t using (the 10s) and connected the 20s. Highly recommend this for future proofing and swaps into another controller when they get drift. Other thing I recommend is connecting the k1 and k2 paddles to the backing in the beginning as doing it in the air with the black ribbon pass thru was a little cumbersome. The trickiest part was the little brown cables on the bottom of the controller where the mic is. During the build it’s very easy to accidentally tug on it or have it get trapped as your going. Always check its positioning as its fickle and easily comes undone and can get stuck in the incorrect position. I imagine this is why a few people had issues with their mics afterwards. I also only peeled a quarter of the top and bottom of the sticker area before applying to battery. That way in future I can easily take it off when swapping kit out into another controller down the road. 10/10 best guide for this rise 4 kit! Aloha 😎🤙
I used your video to install the kit today, thank you SO much! One thing I noticed for myself was that when I initially put on the K1 and K2 triggers, they weren’t clicking, so I had to go back ensure the little screws were TIGHT to ensure the buttons gave an audible click.
Its interesting, would you need it to click? I can normally here my friends clicking the crap out of their controllers, so thats white I ask. I wouldn't need them to click.
If you're concerned about the clicky sounds, the k1 and k2 paddles are muted for the metal remap pcb. For the rmb rise4, the K3 and K4 are clicky though. I was alittle disappointed on that but I don't press them as much since I use those for reloading or switching weapons. For the standard Rise 2 and Rise4 the switches are clicky.
@@pootato69 I prefer rmb since the paddles won't/shouldn't break and the switches aren't as clicky. The switches are tough so they require a little more pressure to activate compared to the plastic.
Never build a controller in my life tried to do led lights and paddles with triggers did a bdm20 !!wish I could show you my build it’s a pred slayer for Apex legends!! Thank you for all the help. I can’t tell you how many times I watched ur videos! I took apart 3 controllers put them back together and then! Fixed them up real nice I got anti sweat grips with paddles extended triggers with quick shot triggers and all black with carbon!
Hey man! Would be great to see your build. I'm on IG. Same username as my YT Channel. I also lurk around on Reddit, my user is Im-A-Caveman. If you're able to show me somehow with either of those apps then go for it.
Just installed this today on my second day of owning my ps5 easy great and couldn’t regret it only thing I can say is it’s very important to adjust the pressure of the screws on the button mother board for the perfect click pressure for K1 and K2
Also you should put out a video with Soldering L3 and R3 it’s super easy but would have been better to only have to watch this video lol the actual makers video sucks compared to this amazing job on the detail and step by step best video out there
@@im.a.caveman thank you so much for this greatly detailed tutorial!! The problem is, I tried another tutorial first, that was for the BDM01, and my controller won't turn on since. I've removed everything and started over since watching your video and can't seem to get it to turn on/light up. Any ideas what's wrong? Thank you again!
@@xxAKILLEESxx If you mean the control isn't turning on then it could be because the incorrect cables were connected. Or maybe the battery wasn't reconnected.
Coming from Scuf Impact, I have been pondering for a while now between Rise2 and Rise4 but after your video I decided to go for the for the Rise4, thanks for the Vid!
Thank you very much for this tutorial. It took me about 80 minutes from start to finish but i was couple of times making sure that everything is well connected and that was way above double checking 🤣 but i'm happy because everything works perfectly. You showed everything so clearly that it was not a problem to do it at all. For people who are not decided yet for such a kit i can say that for 40$ it's definitely worth it. I never had any pro controller from any companies who are selling those products for 200$ or even more so i don't have any comparison but if someone would give me rise4 before saying that it's much more expensive than 40$ i would believe that. It definitely feels like a 'pro' and makes your play much easier and that's what it is all about.
There is nothing you could have explained better. With this video the install is easy as long as you take your time and have patience. It took me about 50 minutes. Great video! Thanks!!
Thank you much for this easy to follow guide. Was always curious about installing an ExtremeRate Remap kit but was scared away after watching other tutorials. Bought a Dualsense 3 days ago (dont own a PS5) and came across this video and after realized it wasnt as difficult as I thought it was. Literally just completed the installation and reassembly and everything works as it should. As you pointed out the paddles are a bit on the loud clicky sound but I'll deal with it. Just glad I found this alternative vs a pricey prebuilt custom controller. Thanks again.
WAY BETTER than extremerate because the camera quality/shots & explanations were perfect. Extremerate should've just hired you but thumbs up, comment, & share is least I could do. Bravo sir. 👍
Thank you for this guide! I did everything correctly except I forgot to plug the trackpad back in. Whoops. Had to open it up again just to fix that, but now it works perfectly.
Bro when I saw this I was like sheeeshh not sure I would do something like that even if I bought it. Although you sounded so calm and confident that I still went ahead it and bought it. I was like if he did I should be able to as well. Your video was the one that convince me the most from others here on TH-cam. I follow step-by-step just as you mentioned and behold I did it!! I would recommend (those viewing this video) getting a plastic tweezer like caveman as the microphone black little tab was kinda of a pain but manageable. God bless you brotha 🙏🎮 P.s I also share your link on Amazon so more views coming your way 💯
Hey man, it's all about giving it a try and being patient. I think I'll give a plastic tweezer a try. Thanks for sharing and watching the video. Enjoy!!!
@@im.a.caveman Oh the plastic tweezer was just a reference for others that are willing to try it. Ill go ahead and re-edit. You had great tweezer to help you on the microphone connection unlike me which I used my nails which was probably the most challenging part for the whole setup but still smooth and easy. Thanks 💯💯💯🙏🙏
It’s crazy I actually tried some cheap trigger kit off eBay. And ended up ripping my ribbons to my controller taking them out. I thought my controller was done. I was searching the bet trying to find replacement ribbons. 1 year later I come across extremerate and it replaces the one thing I thought had ruined my controller. The ribbons. I’m going bring it back to life with this kit. Thx for the video !
Nice guide! After I released the four screws and the two locks from the back piece, It was still really difficult to take it apart (5:26). It seemed there was something more holding it really tight at the front of the controller. Well. I accomplished the task anyway. Thanks!
Amazing video bro! Appreciate your quality content. One question, I wasnt gently enough and accidentally cut the front mic cable (7:30 on your video) can I continue moving forward accepting that this feature will not longer be available or the controller will now be completely disfunctional? any comment will be very much appreciated, thank you!
The controller is fine. Just nit the front mic. I found this: amzn.to/3GJ4aoh Haven't used it myself but I think I might do a test run on these for situations like this. Might even do a video on it
Bro thanks for this in-depth and we’ll put together video. Followed along exactly as you said and my back buttons are officially connected and working. Also got them set up how I like. Thanks again. Gotta get the children to bed so I can play now haha.
I used this guide to install the remap kit today. It's so much better than the official installation video (there's no printed install instructions). If I could give it more than one like I would have done it.
Honestly the soldering was really easy. Got a super cheap soldering kit from Amazon for like 10$ and it took all of 60 secs to do for L3 and R3. But I really like the Rise4. I upgraded from the older one with 2 paddles. Love the clicky feel/sound, but not too sure I like the placement of the K3/K4 buttons. Will take some getting used to. Hella helpful install guide though. These are def worth it imo if you are into competitive FPS games. No delay in the button click and actual game response as far as I can tell.
@Voltress YT I just followed the directions, if you're talking about the actual paddle square, it stays in place with the whole controller back cover put on right, just make sure you line everything up correctly and be patient, don't force if it doesn't feel right because you might break something, I had additional tools besides the ones included so it helped
@@SRTquattro05 do the paddles feel kinda mushy for you as well or did I fuck that up as well ? Mines work but feel super mushy feels like I’m not clicking it I still can’t get the cover to stay on there 🫠
Excellent video. Just bought a remap kit for myself and will use this video as an installatn guide. Thanks for the exposure to this nifty piece of tech.
The metal paddles are durable. A little wobbly compared to the plastic. The plastic people complained about them breaking but not sure how much that's changed since they updated the plastic paddles. The paddles feel firm. For which ever you decide to get, keep in mind that the V1 is ONLY compatible with BDM-010, they also might still have the non updated plastic paddles on the V1. The V2, RMB, and Rise4 are all compatible with BDM-010 and/or BDM-020.
Thanks for the vid bro, gave the confidence to buy it. Installed it step by step with this tutorial and it's working perfectly, had 0 experience doing this kind of stuff. Thank you a lot and keep it up.
Thank you so much, I’ve never taken apart anything before and I was really hoping the extremerate guide would be more helpful than it was. Luckily I found your video not too long after and your explanations were spot on. You didn’t go too fast (I did pause too but not every 2 seconds like was needed on some other videos lol). I know this is an older video but still wanted to give you mad props. I’ll subscribe solely for how grateful I am to you haha.
Glad I came around to see your video, really helped me with the processes of getting everything done right. I even watched your button swap video and really helped me more than the brands actually videos so thank you.👏
Another Great tutorial! Quick question bro, if I have the v1 w/ only 2 paddles and I want to swap out to the 4 paddles. Will I only need to swap the remap board or will I have to take apart everything and start all over again.
Ayy bro if i could like your videos more than once best believe i’d do it more than a hundred times, just attached my extreme rate this morning and this video really helped THANKS MAN!😁❤️
Thank you so much bro. The best guide ever. It was my first time i opened a controller and everything was very easy following your steps. Thank you from Colombia, take care.
Hey Caveman - love your videos pal! Question. Would you be able to make a vid doing both the back buttons and the clicky triggers in the same instal? I purchased both and was wondering do you knock them both out at the same upgrade time? Thank you!!!
If I do it, it probably won't be until later on. I already have some videos I'm backed on and others that are planned. My trigger video is for BDM-010. I will have the BDM-020 trigger kit video in the future but it'll be a while. I would recommend doing the trigger kit first and then the remap. If you do the remap first and the trigger kit later on, you'll have to go through some extra steps. Thanks for watching!
Good clear instructions better than the products video that goes 2 fast. I too did not want to solder as my board did not show the second solder point that is shown. I missed where you screwed the kit onto the new grip. Had to pull it apart again to fit. All working.
I just watched this and was ready to go buy one since my last kit don’t work on the new model. When do you reckon the steel paddles will be released? Love all your tutorials btw savage work
Last thing they told me for the metal version is that it'll be next year. I'm wondering if it'll be a different design if it's gonna take that long. Thanks for watching!
Thank you! Everything from the control should work as usual as long as the kit is installed correctly. Keep in mind that there are no kits compatible with BDM-030 at the moment.
@@im.a.caveman I'm fitting it now and all good but I'm at the end and as I locked the case in, the remap button is stuck. Any advice on how to get the outer case off so I could fix it? Thanks again for all your help
Easily better than the video that is recommended by the seller themself. I didn't have the Rise4, but the process was still exactly the same so it still worked great
Thanks Caveman! Your video worked great in the end, but during it, I was like fuccccck! Haha. Question…bought the same controller as you, how durable is this kit? My super expensive Scuf broke after 6 months and I was pretty gentle with it. Thanks again!
I came here because @JumpinProductions gave really good comments about your video and it has not disappointed. Great video man! Liked and subscribed. 😊
@@im.a.caveman Jumpin has a channel with several walkthroughs, I have been following him since his Bloodborne videos. He talks about the Rise4 and mentions you in this video, starting at the 46:19 stamp th-cam.com/video/JY9t2wY4okg/w-d-xo.html
@@Rurriola Thanks! Stopped by his channel to leave a comment. It was generous of him to do that and for you to watch the video and sub. Glad the video helped.
Not sure what the part is called but it’s at 6:12 in your video. You recommend grabbing the silicone part which helped. On the first controller I pulled out the entire white piece from the board. I broke the pins underneath. Hope that makes sense. Your video helped a lot. Cheers.
FYI - can confirm the discount code IMACAVEMAN on Gaming Cobra works for the metal button (RMB) version of the Rise4 as well. They didn’t charge me tax either, which is pretty awesome I tell ya hwhat. Great content on your channel man, keep it up 👍
Thanks for using the code! Yeah the code should work for pretty much all the products, atleast to my knowledge, unless stated on the product but I haven't seen them exclude anything from a discount yet. Enjoy!
Thank you so much for this video! Such a great tutorial! I have a question tho, what if I only want the X, O, Triangle & Square buttons to remap? Would I still bother with the R1,R2 & L1,L2 flex cables?
@@im.a.caveman Coolio, yeah might as well do them both then :D Just wanted to double check! They arriving today, so will deffo be rewatching your video soon 🤝Thanks a lot man!
the best video if you want to install the 4 extreme buttons.. i just upgrade a brand new black controller with the 4 paddles blake mate colour!!.. I spent almost 2 hours as its my first time and i did it slowly and with care. it's good to make sure that everything is well connected with a god quality job. thanks buddy for your great video!!..the only thing that i dont like is that while removing the shell with the provided tool, you can leave some marks at the edges!!
Hi Caveman, awesome guides! I am attempting to do this Rise4 remap kit along with Clicky Triggers too. I just wondered what you thought about the approach for this? Order? Thanks!
Hi! And thank you! Triggers should definitely be done first and then the remap kit. You know about compatibility for both kits? Just want to make sure you know the installations are a bit different when installing on a BDM-010 or BDM-020.
Yo the main man that knows everything for controller mods! Great video man. Do you know a way or have any ideas on how to create a bit of extra space between the controller and the triggers? I upgraded to the 2.0 and even swapped my 1.0 triggers into the 2.0 kit, but it's still so flush to the controller I barely notice that I've actually depressed the triggers when I'm using them. Appreciate any suggestions on making a bit more space there so you can noticably press the trigger
I've connected mine exactly how the video is, the battery came on before i connected the little motherboard. Now it won't come on. Even if i disconnect it from the small motherboard. What's gone wrong
23:33 I added bits of slightly thick paper behind the paddles to add some resistance. Makes it feel more like the metal switches. But yhh, can't wait for the metal v4s!! Did they give you an ETA?
Hey man, i finally took the leap and got all the parts. Your videos were very easy to follow and controller works great. One question, do you know how to remove rumble packs to make controller lighter? I thought about just cutting the wires and removing them as i only use controller for cod/warzone. The weight of controller with them is crazy
Good break down! Unfortunately I’m having horrible a xp w/ these vanilla ps5 controllers. 2 have insane stick drift! How? They aren’t even a year old? I don’t know if this is worth it after buying another $60 controller. I mainly play Xbox w/ elite/eliminator. So I really hate playing w/ no paddles. I’m playing nioh2 atm & besides the insane stick drift issues (dudes is spinning circles sometimes 😅) I find it so unintuitive to roll with X & then not being able to quick adjust my aim. W/o a working controller I’m thinking new PS elite might b worth it. My fav is the button on the eliminator. They’re so much more comfy over paddles! How is the comfy level on these buttons? Good looks for the rundown vid!
I was having a HUGE problem that I could not locate, it wouldn't turn on. Flash yellow, sometimes work only when pulled apart... My advice, pay attention to the way the slips go into the latches! It has to be the correct side up!!! Specifically the one on the left side! Make sure to copy what side is up and match with video
Just ordered mine, can't wait to install them. If there is one thing I hope they improve, that current official ps4 back buttons have, is the ability to save and switch between multiple profiles. That would be awesome.
Very helpful thank you. I bought the product from Amazon. Guess what?? They sent me 2 k1 paddles and no k2. So mine works now all but the k2. Rip. Thank you so much though. This was super comprehensive and got the job done.
Respect to this....Got mine today and put them on. I can't play shooters without paddles and these are a good alternative to other named products. So far so good. Like you said I that I can get a feel for simply tapping the k3 and k4 buttons on the side. Flawless explanation and breakdown.

I would recommend (those viewing this video) getting a plastic tweezer like caveman as the microphone black little tab was kinda of a pain but manageable. God bless you brotha 🙏🎮
P.s I also share your link on Amazon so more views coming your way 💯
Hey man, it's all about giving it a try and being patient. I think I'll give a plastic tweezer a try. Thanks for sharing and watching the video. Enjoy!!!
@@im.a.caveman Oh the plastic tweezer was just a reference for others that are willing to try it. Ill go ahead and re-edit. You had great tweezer to help you on the microphone connection unlike me which I used my nails which was probably the most challenging part for the whole setup but still smooth and easy. Thanks 💯💯💯🙏🙏
Excellent video; much better than the official video from eXtremeRate! Thank you very much for making this!
It’s crazy I actually tried some cheap trigger kit off eBay. And ended up ripping my ribbons to my controller taking them out. I thought my controller was done. I was searching the bet trying to find replacement ribbons. 1 year later I come across extremerate and it replaces the one thing I thought had ruined my controller. The ribbons. I’m going bring it back to life with this kit. Thx for the video !
Nice guide!
After I released the four screws and the two locks from the back piece, It was still really difficult to take it apart (5:26). It seemed there was something more holding it really tight at the front of the controller. Well. I accomplished the task anyway.
Thanks!
Currently putting together. One thing I recommend is putting the k1 and k2 paddles to the backing in the beginning, makes things much easier.
Amazing video bro! Appreciate your quality content. One question, I wasnt gently enough and accidentally cut the front mic cable (7:30 on your video) can I continue moving forward accepting that this feature will not longer be available or the controller will now be completely disfunctional? any comment will be very much appreciated, thank you!
The controller is fine. Just nit the front mic. I found this: amzn.to/3GJ4aoh
Haven't used it myself but I think I might do a test run on these for situations like this. Might even do a video on it
Buy a new mic..it comes with the flex cable and microphone. Ali express has it . I’m not sure about Amazon or eBay .
Bro thanks for this in-depth and we’ll put together video. Followed along exactly as you said and my back buttons are officially connected and working. Also got them set up how I like. Thanks again. Gotta get the children to bed so I can play now haha.
Does your paddles still work?
@@voltressyt199 yessir. Haven’t had any issue with them at all
I used this guide to install the remap kit today. It's so much better than the official installation video (there's no printed install instructions). If I could give it more than one like I would have done it.
Does your paddles still work?
so would remapping L3 and R3 to the paddles require soldering or is the whole kit solder free? great vid btw
For L3 and R3 it'll require soldering. This is the non soldering version. Which means no remapping for L3, R3 or touchpad. Thanks for watching!
Honestly the soldering was really easy. Got a super cheap soldering kit from Amazon for like 10$ and it took all of 60 secs to do for L3 and R3. But I really like the Rise4. I upgraded from the older one with 2 paddles. Love the clicky feel/sound, but not too sure I like the placement of the K3/K4 buttons. Will take some getting used to. Hella helpful install guide though. These are def worth it imo if you are into competitive FPS games. No delay in the button click and actual game response as far as I can tell.
Great video, thank you for laying it down so easy step by step, I love the feel of the paddles, can't wait to game!
How does the paddles feel bro and is it still working?
Yo how did you get your back cover to stay on ?
@Voltress YT they feel great, sorry never got to this reply, I have no issues with it and love the buy, would do it again
@Voltress YT I just followed the directions, if you're talking about the actual paddle square, it stays in place with the whole controller back cover put on right, just make sure you line everything up correctly and be patient, don't force if it doesn't feel right because you might break something, I had additional tools besides the ones included so it helped
@@SRTquattro05 do the paddles feel kinda mushy for you as well or did I fuck that up as well ? Mines work but feel super mushy feels like I’m not clicking it I still can’t get the cover to stay on there 🫠
Excellent video. Just bought a remap kit for myself and will use this video as an installatn guide. Thanks for the exposure to this nifty piece of tech.
Hey did you buy the metal paddles or the standard plastic ? I can’t make up my mind on which ones to buy. There’s a $30 price difference
Enjoy and thank you!
The metal paddles are durable. A little wobbly compared to the plastic.
The plastic people complained about them breaking but not sure how much that's changed since they updated the plastic paddles. The paddles feel firm.
For which ever you decide to get, keep in mind that the V1 is ONLY compatible with BDM-010, they also might still have the non updated plastic paddles on the V1. The V2, RMB, and Rise4 are all compatible with BDM-010 and/or BDM-020.
@@im.a.caveman thanks. I will keep that in mind !
I just ended up going with the plastic ones. I will try to give an update on the feel once I install the kit.
Great guide, got it done in 45 min while taking my time to make sure i didn’t do any errors
Great job! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the vid bro, gave the confidence to buy it. Installed it step by step with this tutorial and it's working perfectly, had 0 experience doing this kind of stuff. Thank you a lot and keep it up.
I hope i do it right bro
Thank you so much, I’ve never taken apart anything before and I was really hoping the extremerate guide would be more helpful than it was. Luckily I found your video not too long after and your explanations were spot on. You didn’t go too fast (I did pause too but not every 2 seconds like was needed on some other videos lol). I know this is an older video but still wanted to give you mad props. I’ll subscribe solely for how grateful I am to you haha.
bought same controller and used your hair trigger video aswell, thx!
worked like a charm on my BDM-20! much better than the original extremerate guide!! thanks a lot :D
Glad I came around to see your video, really helped me with the processes of getting everything done right. I even watched your button swap video and really helped me more than the brands actually videos so thank you.👏
Another Great tutorial! Quick question bro, if I have the v1 w/ only 2 paddles and I want to swap out to the 4 paddles. Will I only need to swap the remap board or will I have to take apart everything and start all over again.
Coming from another video...this is definitely the one that explains it the best and real efficiency
Glad to have seen your video as without it I don't think I'd have managed to sort mine. Great help and keep up the good work
Thank you for this guide. I've just got done installing a few minutes ago thanks to your video.
I just used your link and bought this because your video was so easy to follow. Wish me luck haha
Good luck! Patience is key. If you need to take a break during installation do that and get back to it. You got this!
I was surprised that I was able to install this kit, thanks for your help bro!
This was the best disassembly guide, and you showed how to install the kit
I installed two today on both of my BDM 10 controllers. Thank you for the tutorial.
Did u use this video as guide for the bdm10?
Ayy bro if i could like your videos more than once best believe i’d do it more than a hundred times, just attached my extreme rate this morning and this video really helped THANKS MAN!😁❤️
Just purchased this kit! Thanks for the awesome and reassuring guide that helped me build the controller!
Thanks for watching. Enjoy!
does it come with controller back shell or is that a separate order?
@@Turkialasbali it comes with
I am so happy I have discovered this, and I am looking forward to receiving it and trying it out! Thanks for the in- depth guide and affiliate link :D
Does your paddles still work?
@@voltressyt199 Yes, but I only got them a few weeks ago, so I can't comment on their long-term reliability.
This video made me want to mod my controller! Great job doing a true detailed tutorial!
How has it been
Brotha!! Thank you for your help! Your guide was the best and easiest to follow. It was extremely helpful! Thank you!
Thanks for watching. Enjoy!
Thank you so much bro. The best guide ever. It was my first time i opened a controller and everything was very easy following your steps. Thank you from Colombia, take care.
Hey Caveman - love your videos pal! Question. Would you be able to make a vid doing both the back buttons and the clicky triggers in the same instal? I purchased both and was wondering do you knock them both out at the same upgrade time? Thank you!!!
If I do it, it probably won't be until later on. I already have some videos I'm backed on and others that are planned. My trigger video is for BDM-010. I will have the BDM-020 trigger kit video in the future but it'll be a while. I would recommend doing the trigger kit first and then the remap. If you do the remap first and the trigger kit later on, you'll have to go through some extra steps. Thanks for watching!
Good clear instructions better than the products video that goes 2 fast. I too did not want to solder as my board did not show the second solder point that is shown. I missed where you screwed the kit onto the new grip. Had to pull it apart again to fit. All working.
I just watched this and was ready to go buy one since my last kit don’t work on the new model. When do you reckon the steel paddles will be released? Love all your tutorials btw savage work
Last thing they told me for the metal version is that it'll be next year. I'm wondering if it'll be a different design if it's gonna take that long.
Thanks for watching!
@@im.a.caveman Thanks so much for the reply
Finally getting around to doing this to my white ps5 controller. I’ve had the kit since June
This is an amazing review and in looking at purchasing this kit. Stupid question though.....the triggers still work after installation right?
Thank you! Everything from the control should work as usual as long as the kit is installed correctly. Keep in mind that there are no kits compatible with BDM-030 at the moment.
@@im.a.caveman thank you! ☺️
@@im.a.caveman I'm fitting it now and all good but I'm at the end and as I locked the case in, the remap button is stuck. Any advice on how to get the outer case off so I could fix it? Thanks again for all your help
Easily better than the video that is recommended by the seller themself. I didn't have the Rise4, but the process was still exactly the same so it still worked great
I just put my metal paddles in this kit and they worked fine!
Awesome! They're interchangeable but I personally don't like having the metal paddles with the Rise4 switches.
Did the whole kit to your video, great job and I’m subscribed for your future stuff!
Just installed it following this guide. It works :) Thank you very much.
Great video and guide ,very relaxing
Thanks for watching!
Thanks Caveman! Your video worked great in the end, but during it, I was like fuccccck! Haha.
Question…bought the same controller as you, how durable is this kit? My super expensive Scuf broke after 6 months and I was pretty gentle with it.
Thanks again!
I came here because @JumpinProductions gave really good comments about your video and it has not disappointed.
Great video man! Liked and subscribed. 😊
Thanks for the sub! Where did he mention my video?
@@im.a.caveman Jumpin has a channel with several walkthroughs, I have been following him since his Bloodborne videos.
He talks about the Rise4 and mentions you in this video, starting at the 46:19 stamp th-cam.com/video/JY9t2wY4okg/w-d-xo.html
@@Rurriola Thanks! Stopped by his channel to leave a comment. It was generous of him to do that and for you to watch the video and sub. Glad the video helped.
Gret vid , can you just install the left side paddles? And leave the right side blank if you wanted?
Thank you Sir. I watched another tutorial and I broke the controller I had. Your video is the best I found. Many thanks.
How did your controller break?
Glad the video helped!
Not sure what the part is called but it’s at 6:12 in your video. You recommend grabbing the silicone part which helped. On the first controller I pulled out the entire white piece from the board. I broke the pins underneath. Hope that makes sense. Your video helped a lot. Cheers.
FYI - can confirm the discount code IMACAVEMAN on Gaming Cobra works for the metal button (RMB) version of the Rise4 as well. They didn’t charge me tax either, which is pretty awesome I tell ya hwhat. Great content on your channel man, keep it up 👍
Thanks for using the code! Yeah the code should work for pretty much all the products, atleast to my knowledge, unless stated on the product but I haven't seen them exclude anything from a discount yet. Enjoy!
It's much easier than I thought. If you're thinking about it, go for it. It's really not bad
Just installed mine! Works perfectly! At last I can play without the pain from the idiotic ergonomics.
Thank you so much for this video! Such a great tutorial! I have a question tho, what if I only want the X, O, Triangle & Square buttons to remap? Would I still bother with the R1,R2 & L1,L2 flex cables?
You would have to connect atleast one of those cables so the remap kit receives power from the controller board
@@im.a.caveman do you mean the main black flex cable, or any of the white ones?
@@Crossy23 Sorry about that. Any of the L/R cables.
@@im.a.caveman Coolio, yeah might as well do them both then :D Just wanted to double check! They arriving today, so will deffo be rewatching your video soon 🤝Thanks a lot man!
This was the easiest installation guide thank you for the help bro it was to tricky following any other tutorial video
Thanks for watching!
Hello,
Great video by the way!
Is it possible to charge them using the official playstation charging station with these remapped controllers?
Hi,
It's only possible with the adapter
amzn.to/48wD3v6
Just did his to my ps5. You def helped me big time with this. Thank you!
You skipped an step but you still the goat
Which step did I skip?
@@im.a.caveman you didn't connect L3 and R3.
@@Picheal43 Oh, that's optional. Which I didn't do.
the best video if you want to install the 4 extreme buttons.. i just upgrade a brand new black controller with the 4 paddles blake mate colour!!.. I spent almost 2 hours as its my first time and i did it slowly and with care. it's good to make sure that everything is well connected with a god quality job. thanks buddy for your great video!!..the only thing that i dont like is that while removing the shell with the provided tool, you can leave some marks at the edges!!
I have the PS4 and PS5 version this new PS5 version looks great love extreme rate mods
Amazing step by step guide! The purple controller looks amazing
Thanks! The purple is definitely a must have
Many many thanks, dude ! I could easy replicate what you where doing and it all went great.
That's great man, enjoy!
followed this and it worked perfectly!
one issue, the K3 and K4 were labelled wrong. but no big deal
Hi Caveman, awesome guides! I am attempting to do this Rise4 remap kit along with Clicky Triggers too.
I just wondered what you thought about the approach for this? Order? Thanks!
Hi! And thank you!
Triggers should definitely be done first and then the remap kit. You know about compatibility for both kits? Just want to make sure you know the installations are a bit different when installing on a BDM-010 or BDM-020.
@@im.a.caveman right yes. I know I recently bought a BDM-020 controller.
Bought my remap after watching this video great guide 👍🏾
Yo the main man that knows everything for controller mods! Great video man. Do you know a way or have any ideas on how to create a bit of extra space between the controller and the triggers? I upgraded to the 2.0 and even swapped my 1.0 triggers into the 2.0 kit, but it's still so flush to the controller I barely notice that I've actually depressed the triggers when I'm using them. Appreciate any suggestions on making a bit more space there so you can noticably press the trigger
Nice. Taking the ps4 controller was a pain. This was made for us to do it ourselves. Awesome
I've connected mine exactly how the video is, the battery came on before i connected the little motherboard. Now it won't come on. Even if i disconnect it from the small motherboard. What's gone wrong
Have you fix it ?
23:33 I added bits of slightly thick paper behind the paddles to add some resistance. Makes it feel more like the metal switches.
But yhh, can't wait for the metal v4s!! Did they give you an ETA?
I heard it could be at the end of Q2 this year. So about half the year.
Perfect guide, man
Thanks!
Thank you,your videos helped me out great. Definitely the best tutorial videos.
Btw I dig the music ! Great video bro !
Hey man, i finally took the leap and got all the parts. Your videos were very easy to follow and controller works great. One question, do you know how to remove rumble packs to make controller lighter? I thought about just cutting the wires and removing them as i only use controller for cod/warzone. The weight of controller with them is crazy
Ty, the process was extremely stressful for me so your guide was very helpful.
Good break down! Unfortunately I’m having horrible a xp w/ these vanilla ps5 controllers. 2 have insane stick drift! How? They aren’t even a year old? I don’t know if this is worth it after buying another $60 controller. I mainly play Xbox w/ elite/eliminator. So I really hate playing w/ no paddles. I’m playing nioh2 atm & besides the insane stick drift issues (dudes is spinning circles sometimes 😅) I find it so unintuitive to roll with X & then not being able to quick adjust my aim. W/o a working controller I’m thinking new PS elite might b worth it. My fav is the button on the eliminator. They’re so much more comfy over paddles! How is the comfy level on these buttons?
Good looks for the rundown vid!
Thank you so much! I was able to complete this customisation without any struggle. thanks so much.
I was having a HUGE problem that I could not locate, it wouldn't turn on. Flash yellow, sometimes work only when pulled apart... My advice, pay attention to the way the slips go into the latches! It has to be the correct side up!!! Specifically the one on the left side! Make sure to copy what side is up and match with video
I followed every step the light turns on in the back and everything but the paddles will not work please help!
can I take it apart and put it on a new controller when my old controller starts to drift?
Just ordered mine, can't wait to install them. If there is one thing I hope they improve, that current official ps4 back buttons have, is the ability to save and switch between multiple profiles. That would be awesome.
Followed this step by step thank you for the tutorial 🎉
Very helpful thank you. I bought the product from Amazon. Guess what?? They sent me 2 k1 paddles and no k2. So mine works now all but the k2. Rip. Thank you so much though. This was super comprehensive and got the job done.
Thanks for watching! You should contact them to let them know. You can also DM them on IG.
Everything worked great! I appriciatw the guide. Thanks man
Thanks for watching!
