DerekSpeare Posted December 14, 2021 Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) Greets, all: Here is our vision for the future of button controllers. What you see is the DSD uBox Type One and Type Two. We developed the uBox about two years ago to speed up production time and to offer a ton of functions and keep the wallet/mama bear happy. We can produce these in a fraction of time it takes for us to manufacture our conventional devices, so that means rapid delivery from our production center in Tampa Bay, Florida (yes, manufactured in America by dedicated gaming enthusiasts). What's the been the holdup? The uBox has been stalled in the hangar because of two forces: microchip availability (thanks covid) and the cost of 3d printing. 3d printing has come down in price (we use the Multijet Fusion process to make the parts), and hopefully soon, microchips will start flowing again over the next six months. We expect these road blocks to clear and when they do, the uBox will be cleared for departure. I think folks will love the abundant control elements, compact size, lifetime warranty and affordable price (around 135 US shipped worldwide). Anyhow, the photos are below! The uBox with the funky knob (Type 2) has the following: 10 - push buttons 4 - push button encoders 1 - 7 position rotary switch 1 - funky switch (7 functions, push button encoder and POV stick) The second uBox (Type 1) has the following: 10 - push buttons 4 - push button encoders 2 - 5 position rotary switches Both versions are available with either black or red buttons. We hope to release these by the Spring of next year if the microchip situation gets fixed...perhaps sooner if our chip backorders come in sooner than expected. Thanks for looking!

PickleMonster Posted December 20, 2021 Posted December 20, 2021 I like this. Seems like a quick and dirty way of adding a weapon control station for a Gazelle or Hind gunners station. 1
