the reason why you need to you couldn't use the sticks on dualsense is because it uses 25k ohm pots, instead of 10K ohm in PS4. The hall analogs sold in two different packages, L3f for 10K, L8F for 25K.

Best response to this video

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Sorry that is totally incorrect information. The HE stick converts resistance (analog signal) to a digital signal. The CPU of the controller is expecting and analog signal. The IC in the HE (hall effect) is spitting out a "converted analog signal" that is incorrect. The HE analgos do not compensatre for the stick (carbon film regardless of resistance) burned into FW at the factory.

[@UberMicroRepairs]

@@EneRec Not quite.. That is true if using potentiomiters... this is hall effect. The 10k / 2.3K isn't really relevent.

[@Its_TBD1]

This is 1 of many things I love, the pure honesty from you. Keep up the great videos. This is very educational for many with how you break things down.

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Thank you. I tried to show the pro's and cons of these sticks. I would have loved them to be usable but the travel issue is a show stopper for us. They almost tick all the boxes but fail on that one area and it's a big one IMO.

[@guitardistortion8517]

I can show you how to fix that

[@doug.newton]

Can you go into more detail about WHY it's such a big deal? Like I can't think of a single game where that tiny amount of difference matters. Seriously all the advantages and you're complaining that you hit 100% at an imperceptible amount sooner than normal at the expense of fine centre controls and never getting drift again. Are you being honest or are you trying to keep repeat customers? ​@@UberMicroRepairs

Thanks for this video. There is a calibration board for the PS5 controller Hall effect sticks which seems to fix the problem you experienced. Would you be able to do a video using those, please?

[@Lando00100]

I learned more in the first half of this video then the last week I spent trying to find the way to repair my controller. And that's not just from the hall effect but how the analog sticks work in general.

Love that intro. I share your principles.

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Nice one appreciate it!

[@Marconi9331]

Very enlightening and thorough this overview, never thought about the outter precision (I dont play competitive games or games that require too much precision), But I'd like to know if you have tested or plan to test using those hall effects in conjunction to the jun Zeng calibration PCBs that have been floating around over the last few weeks, too be honest the price for those PCBs and hall effects make me consider it a last resort but at the same time I'm really curious about those.

[@doug.newton]

I mean in fairness to you I can't think of a game where that millimeter of outer precision is even remotely important, especially with the advantages such as no future drift. Making a big deal out of a nothing burger

The center point calibration is a PITA though and I've also noticed not all sensors are created equal. Some are solid at the center but some have a little slop. Maybe 1-3%

Massive amounts of respect for being honest about this, especially as a business. Hopefully word get's round and some big YT roller reviewers see this. This needs to blow up. Crazy to think that Hypr (and others) are selling the hall effect mod for PS5 controllers too, and i imagine they're using the same model of hall effect seen in this vid... Do you think the same can be said about 3rd party controllers like Gamesir G7 SE or snakebyte? Also what is it about the DS4 that makes it sound with the hall effect mod?

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Thank you. They are the same just configured different for DS5 controllers. We can do the PS4 based controllers because we can calibrate them fully. I would imagine any 3rd party that has a calibration finction should work with these.

[@ControllerSupported]

Thanks for your videos, I was contemplating on buying these, so I'm really glad you tried them out. Have you found anymore reliable ones by chance, also what is that mounting setup you use for your controller boards? Thanks!

[@bluephreakr]

What surprises me is because of all this variation the sticks tend to have, that nobody's thought of a way to replicate the cowling over the sticks using something that is affixed with vertical compression and some long screws _specific_ for each gamepad, and a means to dial in calibration with a small microprocessor that is soldered beneath the controller similar to fixed / pre-calibrated solutions you see on some other HE replacements. The way drift fix solutions resolve this problem on resistive pots are unacceptable, but I can *totally* see a combo application where a _like_ solution for HE sticks can be used to define X-zero, Y-zero, X-max, Y-max, −X-max and −Y-max. Circularity is always going to suck with these, but they'll at least suck predictably, _forever._ And that is important with a tool - not that it works well, but that when it does suck, you can compensate for it reliably.

[@0lil3mon]

Plz READ I just got one and when I try to put a PS4 disc inside it doesn't let me put it in sometimes it goes in but then doesn't read at all. I did software update and everything but the disc drive just doesn't let me put it in. Some when there's no disc inside it makes a noise like its trying to read or accept a disc even tho there's no disc inside PLS HELP!!!

[@EisNayk1]

I have a Zen Pro gulikit controller my dead zones are perfect and the circularity tests are 0.6% and from what I have played on the controller the accuracy feels great to me. Seems like hall effect sensors need a lot of filtering and specific hardware to make them accurate.

[@ssspyderrr]

Yes, Gulikit knows exactly what they are doing with this hardware, the competition likes to go cheap to try and out-produce Gulikit. The effects are these horribad modules. The more of these there are, the cheaper they are, and the more people want to buy as a "quick fix to stick drift". It'd be better to get something from Gulikit or something with swappable thumbsticks like the Edge or Eswap.

🔥❤️‍🔥 I love your content. So do you have to calibrate the regular analog replacement??❤️‍🔥🔥

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Yes we do. We center it and make sure it goes to 100% at the extreams.

[@DaMu24]

I'd theorize that Dualsense and Xbox Series sticks report a different reading because of voltage differences in contrast to PS4, so it's not enough to use the exact Hall Effect solution in a PS4 and put the same thing in a stick housing for the later generation controllers. We have a lot more to learn about thumbsticks, especially in the Dualsense and Xbox Series.

[@vasili1207]

dreamcast did it in 1999

[@franckanoumouye7657]

Could you try with the ps4 stick caps? I've used them on one of my ps5 controller, and they've reduced travel distance by 8~10%.

[@kmemz]

I wonder if these could be used alongside those anti-drift pot kits to calibrate the range alongside the center. If a potentiometer can be tuned alongside the hall position to get a good center but also a full range, I think the hall sticks could be actually borderline perfect. My thinking is that the pots could be used to suppress the voltage curve of the hall effect sensors so that they don't hit 100% early and overshoot. I believe the overshooting is also probably why the circularity is so bad with them. It might even reduce the center jitter a bit, but I'm not sure there.

[@Duxa_]

no, those pot kits reduce the throw of the stick

[@kmemz]

@@Duxa_ That's the point exactly.

[@Duxa_]

@@kmemz Well, no, it will end up getting to 100% faster, so it will be even worse. Think of 2 circles, the outer circle is the maximum stick throw, the inner circle is when it reaches 100%. When you use a trim pot both circles shrink proportionally not just the outer circle.

[@kmemz]

@@Duxa_ The pots reduce the voltage range, the mainboard expects a certain voltage range to either direction that the halls are exceeding, win win.Keep in mind, the mainboard isn't reading a straight "0-100" value for left-right or up-down, it's reading "100-0-100", as it puts voltage down a center pin and reads the output from either of the side pins. If the hall output is giving it 175-0-175, a pot or two can trim that down.

[@Duxa_]

@@kmemz Like I said, it wont work, your throw will be even narrower. The reason Im saying all this is because I tried using them, both in 2 per stick and 4 per strick trim pot configurations. Hall effect isnt giving higher voltage. Its reaching maximum voltage too soon, but it doesnt go over voltage. So using trim pot reduces the 100 -0- 100 to 90 - 0 - 90 (or whatever). Those kits fix the drift but make circularity terrible even on non hall effect sticks. They are worthless. But I guess for most people who dont understand circularity as long as drift is gone its all good. Really the only way to do it correctly is via programmable SOC, like Jung Zen boards. I hope those get cloned and drop in price soon. $10 a piece is too much. I hope they drop to around $1 or $2 a piece.

They aren't potentiometers. You can't use those. And everyone commenting. For Xbox1 controllers there this guy named "Jun zeng " (on youtube) who has his link to aliexpress with a board that can help translate the signal and give a better reading and reducing the jiitter. In order to further calibrate these types, you need to push and the magnet and center then via the little holes to each side of the little plastic. These are just simple and first iteration. Marius (on KZbin has been working on his for over a year now. v2 available for PS4. (Xbox/switch/other soon with v3).

[@pootnannies]

i had a hard time calibrating these. they 'jump' when calibrating. hopefully it's just this first batch. taking off the sensors and spinning the magnets around a bit made it easier to calibrate once it was installed on the controller. perhaps using the "no drift" pads will add a little more resistance so that they don't 1.0 before hitting the outer edge? i will give it a try tonight.

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Yeah loosening the magnet holder helps. However the Drift Fix boards ("no drift" pads) I wouldn't recommend using. We have never used them. They can centre the sticks but rob travel from the full range.

​@@UberMicroRepairs High resistance trim pots rob less range, you know the problem your having now with massive Avg Error: % 3x3mm trim pots shrink that & the deadspot 🎯 size. Absolute minimum shrink is about 0.7-8% using twin 1 million ohms resistance trim pots on 1 axis - & + sides. The single 1 million method per axis shrinks circularity about 1.4-5%. Circularity overshoot is only shown in the diagonal regions but it still exists in the N S E W positions because you're hitting 100 before the stick side reaches the case. Trim pots shrink the range & fix that if the right combination resistance value is used.

​@@wybuchowyukomendant Oh you have some? How's the jitter and range?

Oh also, just so some more technical people know, you could easily throw a ~1uF capacitor between the middle pin and ground on each module to smooth out the noise on these orange/black hall effect modules. I did that when messing with these sticks on a breadboard and it worked well. Going too far below 1uF doesn't filter out enough noise, and going too far over results in lag when moving the stick in the 0V direction.

Do you have any traditional potentiometer based replacement analogs that you recommend?

[@szymons3500]

ALPS or FAVOR UNION

Thank for your video. Do you buy calibrator-pcb for this 3d analog?

[@UberMicroRepairs]

It's in the works.

These can be calbrated useing the hole what the yellow plastic has use thin pointed tweezers pull in opersite direction from drift while slightly pushing down should correct drift showing on calabration dot

[@TheWebstaff]

He's know this. That's not what he is showing. He says the thumb stickhas 100% movement But the hall sensors is well over 100% but nothing can understand that info so it messes up the movement. The last 0-20% throw is just all 100% as far as the pc or console is concerned. And the issue isn't even that dead zone. It's the inconsistency of them.

[@jasephase2k933]

@@TheWebstaff will probably just purchase a kingkong pro 2 controller & adapter what can support any controller

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Correct. There is about 20% total dead zone on the outer travel.

[@TheWebstaff]

@@UberMicroRepairs you seen the news about elite 2 getting configuration options in the config app for hall sensor support?

[@mugense]

I would have loved to see that final test on a stock controller to see the difference.

Is no flux needed for this? I’m looking to do this myself but I’m a beginner to soldering and see some people use flux. I understand the basics to soldering though. And also what temp should you set your iron and heat gun when doing this?

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Flux... LOTS of flux!! Too much flux is just enough.. Specialy if you are new to soldering. Hotair to remove the sticks @ 395c and 50% air flow. To solder in the new sticks, LOTS of flux (if you are new) and temp around 350c- ish! Did I mention lots of flux. Leaded solder too! BTW lots of flux! 99% IPA & cotton buds to clean it up. FLUX... Lot's OF... FLUX!

How about xbox 360, has anyone tested analogs with the Hall effect on it?

Yep, looked at them all!

I saw this kind of joystick and I hesitate to buy it ! What do you think ?

[@batbrains187]

🔥❤️‍🔥 I have really bad stick drift with my factory Xbox series X controller. Im trying to find a fix or should I just buy a brand new controller??❤️‍🔥🔥

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Buying a new controller will fix stick drift every time 😜I would check if it's in warraty first though.

[@veljavuazy]

i dont know what the problem is, sent it and it got repaired with some hall v3.0 sticks and when i got it there was no stick drift but like when i move its so much faster i cant literally play the game and i saw something about calibrating thing and both sticks were 20% error or something like that. can u help me somehow? is that what I have called jitter or something like that? please bro

[@UberMicroRepairs]

What controller do you have and who did you send it to for the Hall Effect sticks? If you're in the UK, we could certainly take a look at it for you. You can contact us at [e-mail].

[@royfirehero]

wouldnt this be good for fps? even though it has so much travel wouldn't it means more flick type of shots. I always choose the highest sensitivity. And maybe a different kind of joystick cap to lessen the gap. just not sure if this is good for fps. it would just be a super sensitive joystick

[@njackson3148]

I want to preface by saying great video and thoroughness. However I dont see an instance where that last 5 percent or so of dead space would matter. When you’re hitting the edge or going that close, you want full input. Not sure when I’d want 95percent input on any game. Nor do I think any of the games are that precise at the edge of the stick. All the precision in aiming is at center to maybe 25 percent. I’d take this over ever having stick drift again

[@user-mr2kb8gh1o]

@UberMicroRepairs how much would I cost for me to buy a pair of those hall effect joy stick modules for a xbox series s controler?

[@TheWebstaff]

£5 roughly from AliExpress.

[@EDVandreas]

Thanks for this very informational video. I have replaced my analog sticks with hall effect sticks on my xbox one controller. When I now press the left trigger, my left analog moves a bit because of the magnet from the trigger sensor. Do you had this problem too?

[@DzaceQ]

Same, any fix?

[@EDVandreas]

@@DzaceQ I applies some eletric tape between the trigger magnet and the hall effect magnet. It is a bit better but still not completly gone. Why does nobody else have this problem?

[@djdimo_97official34]

I just opened new PS5 controller and it's having drift problems

[@liammarsden6931]

random question mate, do you repair the back buttons on battle beavers?

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Yes we do.

[@StrikeOnDrifter]

what part number are the hall effect sticks that you use? unfortunately it seems like the page on your site has 404.

[@UberMicroRepairs]

There is no part number that I know of. The site seems to be working fine. Just checked all the links.

[@kennethbuenaventura2859]

Why is the circularity reduced after putting back to its case?

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Because the stick cap rides on the shell. Outside the shell the stick over extends.

[@kennethbuenaventura2859]

is there a solution for that? I don't have this issue on my ds4 with hall effect@@UberMicroRepairs

[@SmoQueeD]

Hello!!! I loved the video! So to the best of my ability I followed along in the video. I have the same version of SCUF and wanted to swap the thumb sticks. What are the chances of damaging the the rest of the components during the heat gun portion? How would I know if I did? I replaced both sticks and when I went to check to make sure the controller was working it didn’t register at all when I plugged it in to pc. I don’t see any physical damage or burning on the board.. accept when I touched the plastic where the battery plugs into with iron tip. This is my first time soldering and using these tools. And like I said I don’t see any obvious damage to the other components. My biggest concern during the process was using the heat gun. I was just unsure and need help lol

[@hmello3250]

Do GuliKit controllers have that terrible circularity as well?

[@D1S0-]

No they don’t

[@kevinatlive5272]

Do you also did it on Xbox Series Elite 2 Controller? :)

[@UberMicroRepairs]

Yes, We've tested all the HE analogs and calibration boards on all controllers. Results are less than ideal TBH! The benchmark is factory default and even then all fall short so far! We are always looking to improve and give feedback to manufactures. Keep an eye out on out community page for updates on controller we offer HE analog upgrades to!!
