Stick drift isn't inevitable. It's a result of shoddy workmanship.
They deliberately use sensors that wear out after just 400 hours of use, so you have to buy new controllers.
If they used hall effect sensors the problem straight up wouldn't exist
@@graywolf6192”less than ideal for fps” you’re literally using a controller you are already using one of the worst possible control schemes for fps
@@harrylane4thousands of people still play FPS on controllers though, and less precision is bad across the whole board. It is still worth noting that
There’s no way I have at least 3000 hours of play time on my controller and not an ounce of drift
@@slideways8022Thousands compared to millions who use keyboard and mouse.
@@adamjessop4063
maybe it's because of the constant movement constantly updating the position bypassing the degradedness of the contacts
Lil reminder. Hall effect sticks is a thing since dreamcast.
Actually ☝️🤓 the Sega Saturn 3d controller had them 1st and triggers too
And optical encoder like the n64
Yep, i don't understand the whole discussion when there is already a nice solution
@@bgbc1bc companies dont earn much money that way
Didn't everyone hates the N64 stick@@thorluis226
Holy shit 20$ for replacement?!?! Nintendo has it's problems but it's a 4$ kit for tools and both joysticks replacement
How much Nintendo cost and how much this cost look at the difference
@@user-vn7rd1gj1y we are talking about controllers
20 dollars is really fucking cheap for a simple replacement with no extra tools needed
@@cappiecappie770 Say what you want about Nintendo but it's 10 times cheaper to fix both joy sticks (40 bucks vs 4 bucks) if I do it myself.
If I don't have the technical skills you can either go to their store and get a free replacement or ship it to them and get a free replacement.
@@MR_N0VANintendo is 400$ used and this new is 100$
We already solved this problem and better
They're called hall effect joysticks
It blows my mind how controllers from the 90s and early 2000s still working with thousands of houes of play time on them and still work but all new controllers break after a year
I got a couple of PSone and PS2 controllers with drift
I think a majority of people are just bad at keeping their controllers safe ngl, as a kid I broke a lot of my controllers from stuff I would consider not very damaging, now that I'm older the only time I've had issues with drift/broken controllers is the joycons on the switch and that's because I dropped them quite a lot, a friend of mine has had his switch for several years and hasn't experienced drift yet
Except N64 controllers!
That’s because majority of those controllers used hall affect sensors which do not drift ever. Companies phased those out so that controllers need to be replaced and they can gain more money.
"Joysticks start drifting like NASCAR" 💀
But NASCAR doesn't drift
@@trafficracer124when you bump them from the corner you can get one and start to slide tho it's more of the 2000s Nascar
If it's F1 racing then. Most likely no
@@trafficracer124I think he means the way NASCARS constantly turn left on oval tracks (and how they are setup to naturally steer left)
Came to post this, actually made me think it doesnt drift.
it’s crazy cause all company’s have to due is start using Hall effect sticks and POOF all the stick drift problems are gone. It doesn’t solve the loose spring issue but it’s a lot better than traditional sticks and uses magnets instead of resistive pads.
Yea I bought a controller for $40 from easy smx with hall effect joysticks and mechanical buttons. I've had it for like 4 months, it's way better than any Xbox controller I've ever had. It's also rechargeable and has two back paddles but sadly it's not Xbox compatible.
They won’t it’s called planned obsolescence why use other joystick technology when potentiometers wear out fast enough to make you buy a brand new controller.
how much do yall game, I've had ps1 and xbox og controllers with no problems and they are like 25 years old. Stick drift is an issue on the switch but not for really any other style of controller if you dont abuse it
@@Bionicleforever yeah, that's true. I've only experienced stick drift on a backbone controller.
I honestly i don't even know why "recalibration" or something like that just straight up doesn't exist for controller, like hardware wise it should be able to do it just set 0 on that axis and move to each direction as far as you can go then use the value given to mapped it to what it once was
Like i suppose it's not perfect but better than nothing while you wait for a replacement
I just got a lil too late to redeem the code 😭
Same
Same
Same😢
Same
i can t even read the code cuz its blurred
"stick drift going to happen" oh Sega.. we miss you and the Dreamcast more and more every day
the problem with this statement is that it DID have it, but the actual motion range on the joystick was either filtered out or just didn't register until it got outside a specific area around the center. It's been around, and it's going to be around until more hall-effect joysticks come to market.
We've reached a point where I think we would all rather have the cheaper controllers that function as well as the previous gens did. I don't know what they did that made stick drift a regular thing but I remember you had to intentionally beat the hell out of your controller for it to have stick drift. In the days of PS4 and prior, I never had stick drift. I've gone through 3 PS5 controllers in 2 years.
Exactly. Nes (anybody remember the Nes Advantage joystick??), PSone, PS2, N64, GC, 3DS, N2DSXL, *WHAT* joystick drift??
Switch Lite, I've had to be cautious as hell...but four years in (got mine in 2020), and so far, no drift. Then again, I don't like how it forces the sticks as default control over the d-pad...
@@DragoonMS❤❤🎉102
Thanks for the code!
Damn bro
Dammit.
Damnint I wanted to use that
@@Ryder-ly2ez hey how old are you
dang.
Ps2 and gamecube controllers still working like a champ but ive got 2 xbox x/s controllers and a set of switch joycons that make you spin like a top
Yup, it 100% build to break. For god sake please just use hall effect analog
How many times do we need to say this...
HALL EFFECT STICKS NEVER DRIFT!!!
Manufacturers will develop proprietary magnetically detachable thumb sticks before they switch to Hall effect. Incredible.
Why can‘t they build in magnets to counter possible stick drift and possible make the controller live longer like the n64
Uhh I know to sell stuff that breaks faster so they can sell more units and or single replaceable elements
Quite a few companies are doing that now, thankfully. 8bitdo and Gamesir come to mind. The N64 didn't use hall effect magnets though, it used an optical sensor like a mouse. To my knowledge, no other controller has this sort of analog stick.
I bought one and it had a internal magnetic issue so I had stick drift regardless of switching out the sticks, I bought a new stick and putting in the controller caused that stick to break too and I couldn't send it in to get fixed without paying money soooo I just gave up and bought a different controller
I wanna know the lucky guy who got that code is
I almost got it, but I didn’t
Play station been had this and did it better
They are always outta stock with their joystick replacements for the ps5 pro controller, kinda pointless to make a controller like that but not have the joysticks in stock
@@escHollow fr got the controller like 6 months ago and not once have the replacements been available
The idea was simply unmatched. The end result was something destined for trash cans. Gaming peripherals have got to be one of the most "Engineered to fail" products, right behind automobiles.
Thrustmaster is crazy 💀
Me with my hall effect sticks and triggers
Free XBOX game pass? Lmao
I’ve had this controller for about 2 years now and I’m gonna bless yall with a random comment I found many moons ago on a review video. All you need to do when stick drift happens is pop out the module, unscrew the three lil screws, pull out the inner module and pull off the rubber thumb stick on top. Then rotate that baby around a bunch, click it, blow into it, fiddle with that thang for a minute or so. Put her all back together and bam, good as new. It’ll then last for another 2-4 weeks before you have to take her apart again (depending on how much you use it, using it more often tends to keep my sticks good for longer which seems counterintuitive) but I’ll take it for an extremely accurate controller that allows me to fix stuck drift whenever it occurs. Yw
It’s starts drifting in a week playing nascar because the nascar games are literally just holding at full tilt the whole time smh Amazon reviews
I'm making the left stick on my ps5 controller go through hell since a year and a half, I've abused it enough that the plastic on it's shaft is eaten away, it's still not drifting at 0.08 deadzone. Literally thousands of hours. A joystick isn't for ever, but only weeks of reliability is a joke, even with heavy abuse
Its true good idea but obviously how it's going to turn out
20 dollars for one stick? Might aswell buy a new controller
Of course, thrustmaster… the company that’s effectively MadCatz with a racing focus
I got a Gulikit KingKong 2 Pro for $80 and it's my favorite controller at the moment. The sticks are buttery smooth and very precise
We need something like the iPega 9139
(Seriously, look it up, it's a nice controller)
Nah, more like something like the Flydigi Apex 4
Soldering sticks are so easy tho
How many gamers even have a soldering iron lol
How many controller players have actual skill to do that?
@@9e05cherianpadipurackalvar6 Lol
@@imaginefinding its like 10 bucks
@@9e05cherianpadipurackalvar6 true.
Ahh yes the ol' "dont fix it just keep replacing it" solution.
Set a solve this in the late 90s with the Dreamcast using hall effect joysticks.
Most joysticks use variable resistors that will inevitably wear out with use has two things rubbing against one another will eventually have one or both things just rub away.
Thrustmaster is the leaser in plastic accessories next to MadCatz
if you want a long term solution for stick drift then i guess this works, but if youre on a budget use isopropyl alcohol, put it on a qtip, rub the qtip around the ring of the base of the stick, and then move it around. works real well.
PlayStation made a 200 one with that mechanic and the sticks cost 15 and the 2 years that I’ve had it I have not once had to replace them so based on your review it is well worth it to but the PlayStation one
Pov the first viewer with a Xbox redeeming the code is so lucky tbh
Hall effect is the solution
hall effect sensors
The eSwap X pro is a bit more interesting since the dpad can be moved also. So, its modular and you can swap positions of the stick and dpad or change one out for a steering wheel.
Reminder that the gamecube controller has a fix you can do by just pressing a few buttons at the same time
Thanks for the code bro
Guys I am just joking I didn’t get it
@@amazingcreator9453Do you think someone got the gamepass?
Lol
BnVnyhn46e2lenONyCO1g.126.1.8.6 got it today (May 15 at 9:44:58 GMT)
I never had stick drift on my ps3 controllers so its weird that theyre inventing problems that didn't exist back then and then solutions to problems
Hall effect is required
PS2 controllers already fixed stick drift. If you done a full circle motion with one of your sticks than that stick would get recalibrated. It'd be as easy as that.
The problem is that stick drift Is the cause of the contact pads inside the module Wearing down And so the stick drift is permanent.Unless you're able to change those specific contact Pads
as the pads degrade, it thinks its making contact so it moves the control, moving the stick around will update it to the sliders actual position
it's not a feature
It's really not. 99% of the time it's the magnetic actuators that are losing their magnetism slightly, but with software, the PS2 controllers could re calibrate themselves so that the new values of the actuators read as default.
@@toxicc2962 Isn't that Hall-Effect joysticks? Most sticks use potentiometers with a wiper that makes contact with a carbon strip that wears out. Maybe you're talking about the centering spring perhaps? The only PlayStation controller to have Hall-Effect is the early DualShock 3 with Hall-Effect Alps joysticks. I have those. It's perfect, aside from the terrible usb connector.
I have the turtal beach ultra stealth pad and I've had it pretty much since it came out and I've seshed hard with it and literally not had a single issue with anything
I bought a $45 Hall effect gamepad and so far I'm satisfied.
It’s an EasySMX X10. Really good controller for PC or Switch.
I saw those orange potentiometers. Those are really bad, mostly found on cheap, unbranded or bootleg controllers. The GameSir T1s had those. Drifted within a week which matches the Thrustmaster reviews.
I love my thrustmaster.
You can get scuff Controllers with Hall effect sticks and triggers for 80
they need to make controllers with HALL EFFECT sensors rather than potentiometers...
Hall effect for the win
I NEEDED THAT GAMEPASS LOL
Thrust master 💀💀💀
Looking at my younger cousins who hadstick drift on ps4 i can imagine how this happens.
1 is sunlight that make the analoge hot that its going to leak juices that wil makenthe inner part sticky and dirty.
Or
2 when he uses the analog he pushses is to the right and then lets it go instead of putting it in the middle again, by lettin go of the analoge it wil give smask in the oppesite direction giving it stickdroft overtime
Some how ive never personally delt with stick drift, my dradzones are usually set to zero, and i never move
I've never experienced stick drift, and I've had my controllers since 2006
I have the Thrustmaster ESWAP Pro controller and it's really good.
it's like the biggest companies makes the worst crap!
Do a turtle beach stealth review
I saw little screws on the sticks so I’d still buy it and replace them with good quality sticks a d in a couple of years when they start failing it'll be easier than taking the entire controller apart
Dang 34m off
The PS5 dualsense pro is the same thing, it was supposed to make it easier to replace the modules…I’ve been waiting months to replace it for 20$
I saw a board you could solder to your controller that would adjust where the computer thought your stick was so you wouldn’t gave to buy a new controller
I wonder how quickly that code got used
I actually have the eSwap x Pro controller, I personally play alot of shooters with it. It took around 2 1/2 years for any stick drift to be noticable. Maybe i got lucky. But i love the controller.
I have both the Eswap and the Eswap x Pro. Love 'em both. 20$ for replacement sticks is fair for the quality. They last probably 6-12 months with heavy use.
20 dollars is way too much. Seeing how most reviews seem to make it out to be a fast tearer 20 is way too much to change two sticks (an original Xbox controller is 30-40)
I have my controller for year and a half at this point still the same as the day I bought it, not sure why my sticks are not drifting yet
Coat similar to 5o new controller from xbox in my. Country
I feel like this thing would make stick drift even worse compared to a controller with a solid joystick. Solid joysticks all of your connections are soldered straight to the motherboard, while this thing relies on a magnet to hold your contact points against each other to establish a solid connection. If any dirt, dust, debris, etc. gets down there and separates that connection even by just a little I can see where this would cause stick drift to happen even more often.
Try victrix control
I have used these (actually the Pro version of the controller), my first pair of sticks lasted me almost 1 3/4 years. After that I ordered a new pair which started drifting after only 1 month.
I checked what issue it exactly affected the stick: Typically, sticks obtain drift after wear by grinding against other parts of the stick. But I had a very peculiar problem, somehow, part of the PCB silkscreen was peeled back, exposing the trace underneath. Dust or something got into the stick and attached to the trace, making the thing go haywire and drift like a 17 Year Old with a new license and watched Initial D.
All big company controllers should be called scams.
Even though we has hall effect controller since 20 years ago but on one use.
Just get the Gulikit KingKong 2 pro controller. Uses Magnetic joysticks. When you get stick drift you can program to recenter, and fixes the issue. Bluetooth controller with type c charging. Works between Xbox, PC, Switch, android & IOS seamlessly. Only $80
Im grabbin that gamepass😅
Here’s the real solid solution use a Hall effect sensors. This is a permanent solution it will never have drift and it will outlive you. And are not expensive as potentiometers.
i have the eswap xr i love it
Id just resolder better ones to the mini board.
When exist Hall effect sensor or optical sensors - that is stupid.
,,joysticks start drifting like nascar,,💀💀
For cheaper just get a gamesir g7 se. It uses hall effect triggers and sticks, which wear unbelievably slowly, plus 2 back buttons and a driver app available on xbox and pc
They really tried fixing a problem by making a bigger problem
HALL EFFEEEEECT!
Okay nobody is talking about the name of the company “Thrustmaster” 💀
Congrats to the guy who got that code lol
make a mod so we can put hall effect sensors in the stick modules. I have the older version. it still works great but the new light up sticks I bought a few months ago are already drifting. I admit I play a lot of racing and fps games but I would swap stick locations pretty consistently to even the wear but I'm still drifting. maybe a community mod solution could save us all? the ultimate repairable Xbox controller!!!!
i know one or two of those getting lost when i throw it across the room
This is why I'm not so on-board with the Forza Horizon 5 one.
Also the fact that I'm not going to spend almost as much as I'm spending on Armada Universe Tidal Wave on a controller that has a wire, especially since I spent less than half that on a wireless controller that looks much better and came with a special edition DLC code. Sure it took batteries, but Microsoft solved that one too with their rechargeable battery pack.
If only sticks use switch instanted of graphite.. its not like they are cheaper anymore, the dual shock 5 is 100 bucks in my country
Or companies can start shipping out controllers with hall efect joysticks since they use magnetic the only way for them to fail is if you whip the controller across the room and the magnetic fall out from the impact also the tech has been out for a while Sega used them in the dream cast I think but either they are out now and vastly better than any potentiometer based joystick with not stick drift and virtually zero dead zone in the middle
The answer is hall effect sensors
Bro In my entire life I ain’t ever got stick drift bruh 😭🙏🏽
Do a review of the nothing ear 2
Anyone remember the days when stick drift wasn’t an issue OR a concern?
My controller costs less than 20$ and it has been 2 years since I bought it without any problem yet
You can very easily replace this on a regular remote.
Thrustmaster? Lmao
I only buy certified controllers with hall effect sensors. Here in Sweden they cost 34$ for Xbox. They've got a cord though...
The stick drift...the stick drift
