We have to choose between track pad and thumb stick because we get the survey already.
But it is not easy to choose those while we don’t know how the controllers work.
If I choose thumb stick, how could we know that all the game can be supported by thumb stick, or we have to buy the oculus version in valve store and use revive.
Can pimax give more details about thumb stick controller and please explain how the thumb stick can support the 4 direction on track pad. If oculus version use other button for some function in the game, so I am not sure that the vive version will use the same button on thumb stick like oculus touch or not.
You are either buying this as an upgrade to a vive, or as a device that competed with a vive first and foremost.
You should pick the controller that matches a vives closest to make sure in game controls match up as easily as possible.
I plan to buy valve knuckle later if pimax controller still not great like valve knuckle, then I will have 2 track pad controllers if I choose trackpad in survey, so thumb stick will has more benefit because I hope that it will better if use with the revive (felling like using oculus touch).
I want 1 thumb stick and 1 track pad, this will save my cost.
Problem is I don’t know when the valve knuckle will be released and dont’ know how great of pimax thumb stick .
I hope the controllers and the trackpad are of excellent quality, nothing like I’m seeing in windows mixed reality now. Even the current Vive controller has a good quality by what I see compared to the windows MR controls.
What I find unfortunate is that we have no idea how the controllers will look like.

Do you plan to show the controllers before committing the backers to the particular type, so we may have one last chance to change the pick before they are produced and shipped?
Grab the trackpad and pray it will be good quality.
As a VR develloper, I have no plans to use physical thumbstick in any of my projects.
As a gamer, I have no plans to play VR-compatible games or use VorpX and Co… to play non-VR games.
