{"product_id":"flex-controller","title":"Flex Controller","description":"\u003cp\u003eFlex Controller is a new and exciting addition to the disabled gaming community that allows gamers to use external switches and joysticks to play video games on Nintendo Switch. Flex Controller may also be used for gaming on a Windows 10 PC. Please note that the Nintendo Switch must be in its docking station to allow the Flex Controller to be connected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAny switches that terminate in a 3.5mm jack plug may be used- for example Pretorian’s Smoothie 75 and Smoothie 125. The joysticks, if required, need to be Optima Joysticks or one of the compatible Hori controllers (see compatibility list below). It is expected that Ultra Joystick and others from the Pretorian range will be added later this year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe free of charge Flex Controller Settings App for Windows 10 allows the configuration of each switch and joystick including novel settings such as double press interval, ‘ignore repeated press period’ for users with tremors and programmable dead-banding, orientation and sensitivity for the joysticks. Once all the required settings have been programmed, they may be saved in one of 12 Profiles (6 for Nintendo Switch and 6 for PC) and recalled as required. This app may be downloaded below\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen using Flex Controller on a PC, a Tobii Eye-Tracker 4C or 5 may be connected to the PC and used to facilitate eye-gaze gaming. The Flex Controller Eye-tracker App (FCEA) may be downloaded below along with instructions on how to install and use it. The game may either be running on the PC itself or on a docked Nintendo Switch, with both requiring an additional cable to do so. Using the Nintendo Switch via a PC requires a low-cost video capture device supported by software such as OBS Studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease note that Flex Controller cannot be used with Nintendo Switch Lite, nor with Nintendo Switch in handheld mode.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Joysticks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptima Joystick, from Pretorian Technologies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoripad for Nintendo Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReal Arcade Pro V Hayabusa for Nintendo Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattle Pad for Nintendo Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNintendo Switch HORIPAD Mini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse with Nintendo \u003cstrong\u003eSwitch\u003c\/strong\u003e (in TV mode via docking station) or Windows 10.18 sockets (3.5mm) for all types of switch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo USB sockets for joysticks (see compatibility list).\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwelve profiles allow customisation of switch actions using PC app.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion app for Windows 10 allows Flex to be used with Tobii Eye-Tracker 4C or 5.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be mounted using ¼” bush on back of unit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsed For: \u003c\/strong\u003eGaming using either switches\/joystick or eye-gaze on Nintendo Switch or Windows 10 computer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlex Controller User Documents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0013\/8110\/5700\/files\/flex-controller-settings-app.zip?v=1718620155\"\u003eFlex Controller Settings App\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.flex-controller.com\/eye-control\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eFCEA APP\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e1Windows 8.1 ma\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003ey be used with additional driver- please contact us for further details.\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eNintendo Switch is a registered trademark of Nintendo Co., Ltd.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eWindows is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eHORI and HORI logo are registered trademarks of HORI.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRETORIAN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41389535985687,"sku":"FLEX1","price":164.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0013\/8110\/5700\/files\/flex-controller-464626.webp?v=1730239369","url":"https:\/\/www.fledglings.org.uk\/cy\/products\/flex-controller","provider":"Fledglings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
