Dead Zone Settings Switch Pro Controller

I have 3 and have used them heavily for three weeks with no problems. I do use them with the AC3 Zone Controller.

Full of PRO features you might not expect on a smaller slider. The controller has timer settings, continuous repeat, set up so you mark off the range of movement, and camera exposure control. You might not expect the quality build of this unit considering the price! Quality throughout and designed with a number of nifty mounting features for all sorts of shooting occasions. This comes with a zipper carry bag that protects the whole rig while you are moving. Even though it's not a huge rig you'll find that with a good eye and your imagination this will take you far. I'm using it primarily for video accent footage and the smooth moves that you can get with the GVM are so much more pro than handheld. Ok, I like it. Your mileage may vary but I'm guessing not by much. I recommend a ball head for maximum shot flexibility. When you are tracking uphill you'll need it. In Peace.. Bob

A much better tool for controlling lighting- and the zone controller makes dialing it in a breeze. Wish I'd gone this way a while back If I had to find a down side... it would be the over-sized bag- twice as big as it needs to be... Fabulous

This worked perfectly for my set up. I had a dead zone in my office but already had ethernet going to the wall. All I needed to do was remove the wall cover and pop out the ethernet keystone. Then I made and inserted a two inch patch cable between the keystone and this access point. It was immediately adopted into my existing UniFi system. This is an older AP so doesn't support WiFi 6.

This is an update to a previous review, which had one big error, (other smaller errors), one big omission, (and a few other omissions). One omission is that, specifically, I use it under Ubuntu 2022.10, & with Flight Gear Flight Simulator (FGFS). Previous review I had problems [INS] physically [SNI] installing it. The four screws which attach the quadrant to the support were missing. The documentation did not specify what screws they were. I reached out to Logitech Support which said that they do not stock nor ship that part, and what I have to do is return it to the store for exchange. Well, that solution did not seem efficient for four screws. Fortunately, the email did specify what screws they were, (Phillips [EDIT] M4 16 mm [TIDE]), and so I just bought some and installed. So, dead zone. Yes. Only within the slight play at the centre rest point. Get used to the slight play, where there is no tension, and one gets used to the dead zone. Once tension is felt in the yoke, the system responses to movement. It seems fair. One does not want the plane slightly moving when there is no tension in the yoke. It may not be realistic, but it works. [INS] If it does not work for you, the deadzone is totally adjustable via software. (I use "jstest-gtk" and "joystick"). The dead zone can be expanded, contracted, shifted, or completely removed via software. Some amount of "dead zone" is desired so that there is no 'jitter' in the controls when the joystick is at rest, (or at the far extremes). Also, [EDIT] no [TIDE] software from Logitech for Linux, but Linux has software for these devices [INS] such as, 'joystick,' and 'jstest-gtk' [SNI]. Previous review. I should also mention that the yoke only moves 45 on the roll axis, and not 90. That is not a problem for me, but it might be for others who want total realism for planes where the roll axis has 90 movement on the yoke.

Couldn't ask of anything more from it. Does what I needed it to, and perfectly. Zone focus is dead accurate on my Zeiss and Leica lenses. Has a very tight and secure fit. I wouldn't skimp on an adapter when dealing with expensive and high quality optics. It'd be a shame to mount Leica glass on a budget adapter and lose any performance.

Not a single dead zone in my entire house thanks to these. If possible, I recommend hardwiring each satellite with ethernet for optimum performance. Setup is as easy as it gets; the ones complaining they couldn't get it working are probably just boomers.

The AC3 Zone Controller is quite reliable and I have no problem using it to control my Speed light. A great addition to my other Pocket Wizard controllers!

I use this case to house three Pocket Wizard FlexTT5s, 1 MiniTT1, an AC3 Zone Controller, and a Nikon SB600. Fits fantastically well, and it's an incredibly durable case. The only thing I wish it came with was instructions on best tips for cutting the inner foam properly.

This tiny device, combined with my Zone Controller AC3 allow me to actually adjust the power of my bee from my camera! No more reaching up to adjust the bee manually -- sometimes lowering the stand just to reach it. The cost of this device is very easily justified by the time saved, and convenience you get.
