⚠ Stick adjustment (important)

Since sticks are subject to individual differences, the numbers may not be the same for the left and right sticks.

*Even after calibration, there may be differences in the center position, how far the maximum input reaches, and how far it returns.
This is by design and is not necessarily a defect.

*It is recommended to adjust the values ​​so that the actual operation feels natural rather than "aligning the left and right".

Important Information

The biggest feature of the REACTA board is that it supports a native 8K polling rate , so there is no need to use third-party overclocking software. The JDM-5X can be configured through the setup link provided in the FAQ and supports the following onboard settings:

- Remappable rear buttons

- Inner/outer dead zone adjustment

-Customize stick curve response

This product is a custom board and does not include the following features:

・Console connection function ・Bluetooth connection ・Macro function ・Key assignment function ・Vibration motor ・Touchpad function ・Battery

Do not overclock. REACTA already operates at an optimal 8K polling rate. Attempting to overclock may result in instability or slower response times. For best performance, connect directly to the USB port (USB-C to USB-A) on the back of your PC.
