Oh wow I can't send images
So without doing anything, my left stick is moving down
Is that called stick drift? What do I do to fix it?
amber valve

chrome gust
I've tried the recalibratiln thing, it's useless
It's been around or close to 2 years since I bought my console and that controller
Series S
amber valve
you will need to replace the controller, when it as drift.
chrome gust
There's no fix?
amber valve
no I would have said that if there was,
sinful panther
There is a way you can fix the drift

We don't allow discussion about personal hardware repair here
If you feel like going that route, we cannot help you.
sinful panther
Oh sorry I was trying to help them

Seems like joining the official server for help was not the way to go

We are not a support server and it's all community driven support. Hardware repair is tricky at best and disallowed in some cases as against the Terms of Service.

You can reduce the effect of stick drift by increasing deadzones
It’s an in game setting in many games
chrome gust
How does that work? I'm playing rivals mostly and I have seen that setting, not sure how to set it up for myself tho
bitter lantern
Increasing the deadzone will require more movement for the stick to register input
You can just try increasing it until you stop noticing drift
amber valve
you can adjust dead zones to contract the dift thats true. But at some point your still going to need to replace the controller no getting around it
chrome gust
Well after alot of tinkering and prayers and hopes it somehow worked? It's not so bad that makes it useless
