Can the Elite Series 2 Core controller re-use paddles from a Elite Series 1 controller?

I was just wondering if they're the same. I have some that I'm not using and if they are cross generational, that would be great.

They are, thumb sticks aren’t though.

They changed the mounting pegs 😡 like you I had spares from my drift stick elite 1 (over 2 years old, so got a lot of use) and couldn’t use them 😂

i actually prefer the paddles from the first elite controller and used them on my series 2 for the 12 months it worked 😂

I have one paddles yea dpad yeah other bits no 😞

Paddles and dpads from V1 work on V2. Thumbsticks do not.

I have the elite one that launched with the elite console back in the day. The dpad (classic 4 direction swap) works from the old version and the paddles ‘work’ on the new version.

I say ‘work’ because I like the smaller paddles in the lower setting and for some reason it only works on one side. The fit seems a tiny bit looser and it just doesn’t work 85% of presses. It works on the upper setting and the lower setting on that side works if I press the button without a paddle.

I haven’t tried the bigger paddles yet to see if those work.

Could be a shitty controller or my paddle may be slightly bent somehow or warped.

I just got the core 2 yesterday so very much testing it still

Curious if you have anything to update to this comment? I was thinking of picking up a Corr and using my elite 1 paddles on it, but I like to use the paddles upside down (I put the top paddles on the bottom and the bottom paddles on top)…it sounds like that’s what you were trying to do too, but hard to be sure from your description.

Unless the design has changed, they should be able to. You can use the V1 paddles on the V2.

That said, they changed how the thumbsticks inferfaced from V1 to V2, so there is the possibility they may change the paddles.

can you use the version 2 paddles on the version 1 and If so does using the version 2 paddles on the version one controller give it that stiffer paddle feel when you push down on them?
