Go ahead Mr . Wendell . <| sep |> I used an Xbox 360 controller long before I got the rift , and continued to use it after I got my rift . I never used their Elite controller until the person on the forum told me to . I used to be able to play for hours on end with the 360 controller connected . Around the time I changed HOTAS controllers the problem started . However I ' ve tested it even with the HOTAS removed and uninstalled , and problem still continues so I ' m pretty sure it ' s just a coincidence . <| sep |> What have you attempted already ?
