I have a "home brew" 3 axis CNC gantry router with a 28" X 52" work area. I am running Mach3. I am considering adding an MPG remote "pendant". This product looks interesting -- particularly since it purports to work via the USB port. Have any of you had any experience with this particular product?

I have had very spotty (actually that is being rather kind) experience with products that I have purchased via the internet DIRECTLY from mainland China firms and so am somewhat leery. As a result, I would very much like to hear from any of you regarding your direct experience with this product (or one very similar). In particular, I am interested in control latency, battery life, reliability of operation, reliability of product, etc. They appear to offer both a 3-axis version and a 4-axis version at a slightly higher price (limited A-axis functions).

Thanks,

Got mine about two weeks ago. Have yet to get any success with it. It came with a half size CD-rom that contained directions in pigeon english and a .dll driver that has nothing to do with the product (the .dll contains a picture of the ShuttlePro, not the XHC Shuttle pro that is shown in the online description. Hopefully, someone comes through with the correct software and all is well. But, in the mean time, I have a good looking piece of hardware that serves no purpose.

I wish you luck. I would be interested in your final outcome. The experience that you described is comparable to most of my purchases directly from mainland China of "JUNK" over the internet, with a final success rate of probably less than 20%. In the meantime, since I started this thread, I gave up on this route and used an old game controller (USB port -- wired) and some freeware to make an inexpensive (read FREE) remote JOG controller. I am very happy with the results.
