Hey guys! I’ve been having bad upwards stickdrift on my right stick, so I took it apart and adjusted it to nearly completely remove it. It was fine. A bit of tiny downwards drift, but barely noticeable. Not long after, the drift has returned. I going to have to rip it apart and asjust sever times a day, or am I just doing it wrong?
You can try cleaning the stick with 99.5% isopropyl alcohol, this has helped me with the same issue in the past, just dab it in with a Q-tip, and clean.
The way plenty of people fix stick drift (including myself) includes the following. Cotton BudRubbing AlcoholControllerWet the cotton bud w/ the RA then tighten it up/ squeeze the end, reapply RA then rub it all around the joystick as hard as possible
I just fixed this on my elite controller and the way i fixed it was by separating the up and down green piece a little. Hard to explain but after you get your controller apart there are 2 green pieces. One for up and down the other for left and right. My conclusions is that the piece is worn out so it’s loose. Separate the green piece on the right just a little bit so the black prong on the side go in a little. This worked for me and nobody told me about it
