6.1 Hall Trigger Dual-Mode Switching
The X20 features a dedicated trigger lock on the underside of the controller. This allows you to switch between two trigger modes:
- Linear Trigger Mode: Ideal for racing games, providing a longer keystroke (9mm) for precise throttle control.

The Hall Effect joysticks are detachable and can be adjusted for height. To adjust, gently twist the joystick 45 degrees and pull to remove. You can then re-insert it at a different angle to change its height:
- Standard Height (9mm): For fast shooting and general gameplay.
- Increased Height (10mm): For more precise control in games requiring fine movements.
6.3 Full Mecha-tactile Buttons
Experience the responsiveness of e-sports level mechanical buttons. The D-pad uses a tactile switch, while the ABXY and bumper buttons utilize micro switches, providing a crisp, instantaneous feel and lightning-fast response times.
6.4 RGB Lighting Adjustment
The controller is equipped with RGB light strips that can be customized. To adjust the lighting, use a combination of the 'C' key and joystick operations. You can cycle through 3 light modes: Breathing, Colorful, and Off, and also adjust brightness and color combinations.
6.5 Mode Switching Function (X-input / D-input)
