I like the Razer Panthera. I did have to get the drivers from Razers website before it worked on Windows10 though. To me it feels the most authentic to an actual arcade cabinet stick with the Sanwa parts. It is customizable if you want to eventually replace the gate or buttons.

The XBox counterpart, the Atrox, is NOT PC compatible even though Amazon will tell you otherwise. Of course, being a PC, you can get out to work if you hunt around enough...

I also like the Qanba Obsidian a lot. Also sanwa parts, it's bigger, Windows 10 recognizes it right away, but it doesn't open up for easy modding.

The HORI RAP4 isn't bad, but it has a distinctly different feel from one with Sanwa parts.

A lot of it is really going to come down to the weight, how it feels in your lap, and 2ndary button placement (start button, R3 & L3, etc) and what you think is more convenient. The Qanba Dragon, for example, is very expensive but I personally don't like how they put the Start, LED controls, L3&R3 in a little square at the top. I can never seem to hit reset in training or trials and have to hunt for it.

I don't have that specific HORI product, but I've never had a compatibility issues with HORI & PC. I have a stick for XBox&PC, and a game pad for PS&PC. Both work flawlessly.

Personally, I went with a budget fight stick until I figure out if I want to continue down the path of fighting games as a whole.

So, I chose the Qanba Drone. It's not bad, and it didn't break the bank too hard.

Absolutely. You bring up a good point.

Let me add, I've played fighting games since Street Fighter II in the arcades, so there wasn't a question mark lingering over my purchasing decision. I knew I was going to play fighting games, and I knew that I like playing on an arcade stick.

I've heard good things about the Drone, even though I haven't used it personally. The two Qanba's that I have tried have been excellent, however.

I don't know all arcade sticks, but I can wrote that Hori Hayabusa RAP4 isn't the best. Sometimes I feel that pressing buttons won't work imediately in the game. The Hayabusa Joystick and buttons Hayabusa (or Kuro depends the model) are very good components, I've never had problems with Hori Hayabusa. Maybe the problem with the reaction time is the Hori's PCB. RAP4 for PS4 is a good arcade stick in my opinion for casual matches, but if you are competition player or scope top ranks, I think that your experience will be better with another arcade stick with Sanwa Parts and used for pro players. For example, Tokido, Fujimura and Daigo uses Qanba Obsidian. Xian uses Razer Pantera. I almost never see professional players of Street Fighter V using Hori Hayabusa, at least the best of the top 10.

Most sticks should have no problem with PC games, so just choose whatever you like the most within your budget based on aesthetics, feel, sound, weight, button placement, etc. As for the Hori RAP V, I've only used the PS3/PS4 version (Hayabusa) a few times and it's pretty nice. The only thing I don't like about it is the placement of the PS button. Other than that it's quite good. The stick and buttons are noticeably louder than the Sanwa parts on my Qanba Q1SW but none of that is a bad thing and can actually be better depends on what you want. If possible you should borrow one and see if you're comfortable before buying it for yourself.

It most cases the issue is a conflict between the controller configuration in Steam options/ big picture mode and SFV's native controller support/detection, which is written into the input.ini file.

Delete/reset the SFV config file input.ini, disable all controller options in Steam settings and set your Quanba controller to X-input or D-input (PS3) mode, whichever applies in your case. Switching between different input modes, usually requires you to delete the input.ini, file again, so that the controller detection settings are re-written correctly again.

What is your budget? Do you need it to be compatible with the PS4 as well?

If you only plan to play on pc and want to go in cheap, get the Qanba Carbon. It has xinput so you don't need to configure anything ever software wise. 100 percent plug n play. Best budget Arcade stick for the pc only player.

It's Easy to upgrade it later on down the line with Sanwa or Seimitsu buttons/joystick lever with the former being what most high end arcade sticks use for their buttons and joystick lever.
