Controller Keyboard for Xbox Series X/S/One/One S

How to assemble:

1.) Print all 5 parts via the All-in-One file OR individually. I printed mine in PETG, but PLA and all other stiff materials should work as well.

2.) Disassemble the original housing. There are 11 screws in total. DON'T throw them away, we will need them later. Disconnect the keys PCB from the connector PCB. Cut or desolder the PCB from connector PCB which contains the headphone check and the second connector port.

Here is a picture of all the parts which are needed: 

The following parts are not needed: 

3.) Take the "Keys" Part.

Press the silicone mold in the holes. Make sure there is no dirt on the back side.

Inside the keys PCB using the alignment holes.

Take the “Connector Box” part and glue to “Connector Box Spacer” onto it. If you printed the All-in-One part, this means print bed surface to print bed surface. Care for orientation!

Insert the connector PCB into part “Connector Box”. Make sure it is facing the same side as seen in the picture!

Place “Connector Box Lid” on top and use 2 long screws the clamp it in place. Don't overdo it!

Place this part now onto the first assembled part containing the keys.

Use 4 short screws in all 4 corners. Don't overdo it!

Connect the connector PCB with the keys PCB.

Attack the “Back Support” parts using the remaining 4 large screw. Use space above “Connector Box Lid” to hide cables. Be careful not to pinch the wires.

Done. No you just need to press it onto your Xbox controller. It should lock in place once fully inserted.

Note: You can still use the headphone jack. Right angle connectors should fit easily. Straight connectors can get tight.

Also, do this modification at your own risk. Keyboard parts and controller might get damaged.

Why I designed this?

I ordered this Keyboard attachment from Aliexpess and was disappointed because I couldn't grab my Xbox controller like I did before I used the attachment.

I really liked the concept though of having a phone sized keyboard attached to my Xbox controller which is useful for a variety of PC games.

So I searched on amazon and found out that the are pretty much all copy pastes of the same bad design.

So I took mine apart, striped away all the parts I didn't need and designed a case around it.

After several trial and error versions finally all parts fit together nicely.

As you can see in the following pictures my middle, ring and pinkie finger can get a closer grip with my design compared the original case.

The most difficult part about designing this was to keep the keyboard stable when you were typing on it. My first design didn't use the screws only 3D printed clips, this wasn't sufficient unfortunately. So, I reused the screws I already had and added stabilises on the side of the keyboard. I also had the add the back support piece which clips on the slot on the back of the controller.

I hope you like my design and feel free the remix it if you like.
