Left Controller Drift

My left controller has a consistent drift that pulls down even when I push the joystick up it still pulls down. I've tried compressed air and it didn't work I don't know if it's a hardware or software issue.

@Moonawaris1 Sounds like it could be a hardware issue, never fun.

 

There is a couple things you can try in regards to joystick drift though:

 

  • Take out the battery for like 10-15 minutes
    • Replace with new or known working battery
  • Unpair and re-pair your controllers
  • Adjust your joystick calibration/deadzone and range:
    1. Go to Settings
    2. Go to Controller Settings
    3. Under Joystick Deadzone and Range, click that left joystick.
    4. Follow on-screen instructions to recalibrate the joysticks deadzones

 

If nothing seems to help out, you may want to reach out to the Support team with a list of the steps you just tried for a speedier process.
