I have been using my Playstation original controllers way back to PS2 or PS3 extensively and for long playtime but havent had any stick drift. I think it comes to the perticular models of controllers which develops stick drift.

[@GearsAndTech]

They used different sticks that are known to cause drift sooner

[@boosted0079]

The PS3 controllers came with hall effect sticks in them from the factory. That's why they never had issues. Sony and many other manufactures went to the potentiometer sticks because they're cheaper. I'm sure it also helps their sales on controllers when people have to buy a new controller every few months.

[@RoyalFlakes_]

I can recommend you if you solder more often Weller WE 1010 or ERSA RDS80, then you don't have so much trouble unsoldering the sticks, because the China soldering stations are only ok for simple work like tinning cables, etc

[@GearsAndTech]

Agreed, a better unit would work better. We just don't solder that much

[@syn80]

V5 Ginfull are the best currently. They are better than brand new stock ALPS potentiometer joysticks. Lower error rate in the circularity test. They use bigger magnets and different shape. Old versions of hall-effect joysticks use small rectangular magnets.

[@GearsAndTech]

Yeah, the ones I installed have the rectangle shaped ones.

[@syn80]

@@GearsAndTech If it works fine for you that's ok. I also have the older small rectangular magnet joysticks. Today I ordered the Ginfull V5 joysticks and I will replace the old ones for the new ones.

[@Blazko381]

Do you have link for these? There are without jitter?

[@syn80]

@@Blazko381 If my link got hidden search: "PlayStation 5 DualSense High Precision Optimized Anti-drift No Jitter" They use a bigger magnet and different shape. Old sensors use the small rectangular magnets.

[@mrboyban]

Bear in mind that desoldering using basic desoldering tool is a pain, takes ages. Be prepared!

[@GearsAndTech]

This is not a job for feint of heart

[@ashnokhan]

You have explained very well. Thank you Sir ❤

[@GearsAndTech]

You are most welcome

I've done this mod to almost a dozen controllers. 3 in my own home for me and my kid's controllers, and then I've fixed up controllers for my kid's friends. Is it easy? No it's not. Especially if you don't have an the right tools and such to do it efficiently.i highly recommend using some low melt solder on all the joints, and a precision soldering heat gun to free up the old stick. Without that, it can take forever. But there's one big payoff here. You will NEVER have stick drift again. Ever. Once it's done, that controller shouldn't need to be opened again unless it's something else that needs fixed, modded, or replaced(like a battery, buttons or triggers) The calibration technique is a little awkward, but I wouldn't say it's hard, or that it sucks. It can take a few minutes to get the sensor aligned just perfect, but again, once it's done, is done for good. Should never have to touch it again. The magnet doesn't ever touch the surface of the metal sensor. No friction, so there's nothing to ware out like in the stock potentiometer sticks that use the carbon faces. The problem with the dual sense is that Sony is being cheap and using cheap parts to get their product out the door. Most controllers last 3 to 6 months before one of the sticks go bad. I have replaced just the carbon wiper plates to fix a controller, and that is much easier to do than replacing the entire stick. You do not have to mess with calibrating anything doing it this way either, but it'll eventually ware out again just like before. The PS3 used hall effect sticks in the dual shock 3 controller, and that's why they never had any issues. Hall effect sensor sticks are superior to potentiometer sticks.

[@GearsAndTech]

Thanks for sharing. Glad to hear you enjoy opening these things up

[@JZT939]

I see one with L-8J written in the pcb what bersion is it as it does not mention on amazon

[@Elbro-kbron]

Can you try to put these in a dualsense edge thumbstick module? It would be interesting

[@GearsAndTech]

I can try, yes

[@Elbro-kbron]

@@GearsAndTech I'm looking forward to that video, thank you very much.

[@bxclone]

@@GearsAndTech I was going to ask the same question

[@donovan3921]

wow 2 month ago there is no sofware calibration. but now we have dualshock calibration gui which is very easy to calibrate brand new analog.

[@GearsAndTech]

Yeah, I have a new video showing how to do it with software. So much easier!

[@anothergmail-g5j]

Looking forward to the calibration part.

[@GearsAndTech]

Yes, it's an important step

[@Playboifrank]

​@@GearsAndTech when is that video dropping?

[@rigi3921]

Hi, Can these be used to replace the original ones on a ps5 edge module? Thanks for your reply. Regards

[@GearsAndTech]

Yes, absolutely

[@rigi3921]

​@@GearsAndTech Is it necessary to solder the calibration module?

[@david_vs_a_word]

I have a question. Aren't you supposed to adjust it? Because it's not the same as A. Regular thumbstick, so you can get proper.Dead center?

[@GearsAndTech]

Yes, I go over tuning it after the install

[@ARG]

The dreaded stick drift, every gamers nightmare.

[@GearsAndTech]

Yeah, I'm glad I fixed it forever. I dread having to open the controller again

[@itzdcx]

do you think this will work with a 3RD party controller?

[@GearsAndTech]

Yes as long as you match the resistance

[@Pelevaljevo]

where can i buy this module? Thanks!

Funny because I was never good with solder sucker but solder wick works for me

[@GearsAndTech]

I have had the most luck with the Smucker

[@pac-man-ooo5520]

@@GearsAndTech that's awesome man I need to practice more on the solder sucker save some money on buying wick any tips maybe I'm not fast enough,should I try adding some solder to help it suck out better?

[@googletarded8300]

Does gamepad tester work to help calibrate for Linux based systems as well? Thinking I'll need multiboot for this.

[@GearsAndTech]

I've heard it does.

[@hunterbeckmann313]

Hey man I kinda messed up my controller while trying to fix controller drift on my scuf ps5 controller. Is there anyways I could send it to you for help. Appreciate it a lot man.

[@GearsAndTech]

Sorry my friend. I hated every minute of opening this thing up and replacing the sensors. You can try again with another controller board and swap the scuf parts onto it

[@carlosswiftdev2703]

What did you mess up exactly? and where are you from.

[@huzaifashahid4859]

you need to calibrate those thats why they are feeling so sensitive.

[@acedmjnnkm1971]

i want to ask questions is there a chance to connect kk3 controller (3rd party controller) to the ps5 using beasiver p5mate?

[@GearsAndTech]

P5mate works yes

[@acedmjnnkm1971]

@@GearsAndTech thanks man👍

[@MKKXII]

hi your vidoes is always gr8 & helpful on what to buy & just bought the P5 mate & if you can help me my besavior controller i been using it for year now & suddenly its stopped receiving command from my other controller like the zen is reading it but i cant move but i can switch profile ect on zen any idea why ps not im connecting scuf

[@GearsAndTech]

Unplug the zen and plug it back in. For some reason it's not going through the besavior controller.

[@MKKXII]

@@GearsAndTech the wired thing it worked lol thanks tho do you thing the P5 mate is better in this matters

[@iiSyX]

I just installed these and calibrated them very easily, with an average error of 5%,

[@GearsAndTech]

That's awesome to hear. How are you liking them?

[@gunnaralv]

No, that is terrible result. You have too much reach and travel is too fast. You are out of range by just pushing it 50% . This is not good.

[@parsaplayz4857]

I would expect it to be emulating it

[@GearsAndTech]

No, it's direct input

[@Traitors1991]

Gulikit v5 sticks are the best

[@GearsAndTech]

Yes. They are pretty good too

[@dik1181]

Damn amateur. didn't even calibrate the circle. Through ds4 tools this is done in 30 seconds, but no.... And also don't forget to tell me that with hall sensor sticks, Besavior will not calibrate the triggers on initial setup. So you can't put a set of petals on if you already have magnetic sticks.

[@GearsAndTech]

I'm trying to understand your comment but it's confusing Yes hall effect work with besavior back buttons Yes you can calibrate all sensors with ds4tools Yes I haven't had any problems. Not sure what else you want from me?
