AKNES HallPi V6 TMR Electromagnetic Joystick Replacement for Xbox Series X/S Controller, Anti-Drift Stick Repair Accessories for Xbox Series X/S Controller - 2 Pairs

These are absolutely brilliant...... but getting the old ones out clean is a task due to 14 solder points.

In the past whenever I got stick drift, I'd either replace the really small censors inside the stick (by forcing open the side part and putting a new metal plate thing in) or I'd just outright buy a new controller, this time I tried these. Now this was a REALLY hard fix. I don't have much practice with soldering, so it was quite hard to solder off the 2 analogue joysticks without a hot air station to help. I did manage to do it, but it was really difficult. After installing these I did the normal calibration through the Xbox app and they worked great. For some reason they actually feel a lot more responsive over the traditional joystick modules, and also feel much cleaner to use, even compared to a brand new Xbox controller. I will admit this is a very hard replacement for someone with no experience, and you do need soldering tools as mentioned, but having peace of mind knowing your sticks will last a much longer time, and not have any drift, made this worthwhile to me.

One of the replacement sticks I received was faulty. The first step toward figuring that out was rebuilding the data and power traces, which had been damaged when I melted the original OEM joysticks during removal. The plastic fused to the board and tore out eyelets and traces when I tried to lift them off using a hot air gun. To fix the board, I worked directly with a professional in the seller's dedicated Discord. They take time to review people’s installs, give precision advice, and genuinely help everyone get the best possible results. With their guidance, I repaired the board and went through every possible cause of failure. Once it was clear the part itself was faulty, the seller immediately shipped me a new one. No hassle, no pushback, just real support. The working sticks feel great. Solid and responsive. Once I switched to a proper soldering iron instead of hot air, the rest of the install went smoothly. These are high quality parts backed by even better service. Mistakes happen. Things go wrong. But when a company and community step in to help you recover, that says everything. I will absolutely order from them again. See below the disaster I recovered from. They sent not one, but a set of two Bravo!

Están muy bien bienen 4 más unas gomitas para los joysticks, llevo un mes privándolos y nada de drift.

These joysticks are amazing. I wish they were in stock and stayed in stock. I repair controllers for a side hustle and have had great experience with these. They defeat drift and provide a great gaming experience. Please bring these back into stock.
