Modding your PlayStation 5‘s DualSense controller with rear paddles, clicky buttons, and drift-free sticks is easier, cheaper, and more fun than you’d think.

I don’t own a gaming console, so I didn’t even know you can open these things to see the hardware. I believed it was all soldered like in new phones or something. It is really interesting to play with the controller’s insides.

    That title is the exact reason i’m going into aviation maintenance in December. Being able to take things apart and put them back together again plus fiddling around with them to see how they work? Perfect

      That will be cool! I do a lot of repair, but aviation is another level! Fixing things is honestly the most satisfying labor overall for me. I take any opportunity I can to learn a new device. I’m in assembly these days, though, so it’s mostly for friends and family. Do you need to go to school for aviation maintenance?

        I’m going to be going to a trade school for a few years to learn everything I need! AIM (Aviation Institute of Maintenance) has locations all over the US
