I'm also trying out an Astro C40 ($200) and a Razer Raiju Ultimate ($232) for comparison.

I'm really trying to up my aerial game, the paddles are key here since I refuse to remap the basic buttons and retrain my brain after 1700 hours.

Funny thing is though, I'm mapping air roll left to right paddle and air roll right to left paddle. Just seems more intuitive that way for me, like I'm rotating the car up instead of down on each respective side, since the paddle pressing is up and not down. Leaving L/R bumpers as air roll left/right, since I press the buttons down. Weird, maybe, but makes sense to me and I've gotten fewer blackout moments in training.
