How do you know it has two tac switches? in the picture, it only shows the front. And the only Legacy controller with tac switches is the Odin's Raven. The other two are the Thors hammer, and the Tyr's hand. They all have the same chip btw. so if you bought an unwarrantied controller, you can just upgrade it to the next best thing :D Just not the Macro controller. They have a very complex, and different chip.

These are both odin's ravens. Not macro. Buyer bewarned: No warranty whatsoever on these. If these break a day after you buy them, you are out of luck.

It looks to me like it's an honnest mistake... They just copied and pasted the front page, not realising it's now a different model.

These kind of mistakes are what make him either a careless seller, or an attempted scammer. Either way, stay away from these types of sellers...

the fact that the first guy had the PNP cable next to it and not the 3.5 jack makes me think that he is a scammer..... if someone were to come to this site and see how cool the macro controllers are and didnt notice the lack of tac switchs they would fall for it

you could get a odins raven with a PnC option or 3.5 jack

Well I can verify that it's a macro controller, seeing as I have that exact model of the macro controller. However, as always, I can't verify how well it works seeing as it's an ebay seller.

If it's legit, it seems like it would be a good deal. That controller add-on seems like it would be fun to play with and I think they sell for like 50 bucks online. I'm not saying it's actually worth using with your viking, because it probably blocks some tactile switches, but it would be fun to play with :)

here's the add-on you see

Looks like it might have been an honest mistake. I got this message from the seller in the first post.

Me:
I only see two tac switchs on this and not the 6 that come on the real Viking Macro Controller.... is this a macro controller or the Viking Odin's Raven controller?

Him:
Not sure, how can I tell? I buy and resell.

Me:
The Macro Controllers have 6 Tac switches, That one only has two on the back. I asked around on the Viking Forums and it is in fact an Odin's Raven. Still a very good controller, but not a macro controller. It is considered a "Legacy" controller and has some pretty good software that you use with it to set it up.

Its still MUCH better than your average run of the mill controller rapid fire controller, but not a Macro controller which sells for $169 and up.

Just throwing it out there, the N-Controller avenger is NOT compatible with the macro controller.

Maybe if you sawed off your tac switcher, but then how would your macro controller work lol?

I assume this ebayer bought both - then realized it didn't work and didn't want it anymore.

Maybe there is a problem with the macro controller as well.

No refunds - I wouldn't trust that ebayer.
