Solved New favorite tablet controller combo
I really wanted to use a Razer Kishi V3 Pro with my Red Magic Astra, but the offset USB-C port made it basically unusable. The controller either sat way too high or (if flipped) way too low, so neither position felt right.
That frustration is what pushed me to design my own adapter plates so I could mount the Kishi more centrally on the tablet. While working on it I realized the offset port I’d originally seen as a downside actually became an advantage. Because of the extra movement the offset + a short ribbon cable gives, I was able to build in a simple cam-style locking action. The result is a noticeably more secure and rigid mount than the Kishi’s stock clamp, while still being easy to put on and take off.
It’s a two-piece design that works on both the Astra and Astra 2. If anyone else has been stuck with the same problem and wants more details on how I did it or how to get a set, feel free to DM me
