Stick Drift Fix for PowerA & Razer Pro Controllers!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 лип 2024
- Helder has recently expanded the stick drift fix lineup with PowerA compatible PCB's! These work the same as the fixes I've previously covered, and cost the same price. Unfortunately, it only works for Spectra & Enhanced controllers and won't work with the Fusion Pro 1 or 2. But it's a good avenue for those with the experience in Soldering who are interested. This will be the last time I cover stick drift PCB's for a while. As I plan to explore more avenues that are available to the average consumer
I hope you guys enjoyed this video, and I hope yo see you in the upcoming comparison video!

#StickDrift - Наука та технологія
Helder dropped some PCB's for PowerA so I wanted to give em a shout! Next time I talk Stick drift I'll be reviewing the new 8Bitdo Controller with hall effect thumbsticks.
It appears that there is a growing audience interested in the reliability of their controllers!
You forgot to pin your own comment
Hey vCuda one of these companies should just add a solderable hall effect joystick module.
@@al-ww5jp only problem is it's better for all of the companies bottom line to sell things that are going to break within months it wouldn't surprise me if there wasn't much improvement in the market until a law maker starts pushing controllers as an environmental problem
I've finished my total technical study of all the bloody trim pot resistance values & posted the perfect recalibration results 👍🏻🎮👍🏻, mastered the buggers.
I'll say this I've used 50, 100 & 200K resistance trim pots in the same pad on random axis for the best results just to throw a bag of spanners 🔧🛠️ at a one piece solution 🫠, sorry it wasn't good enough 🫢🤭🥴 for me, follow the mad science ⚡🤤.
Keep up the good work.
Next to watch your usb-C DS4 switch out charge pair board find 😱 well I never good stuff 👍🏻.
This youtube channel is awesome. thx for all the great content vCuda.
thanks for the explanation of the 2 types of stick drift. i apparently have the latter one, so reassembling my controller i go. honestly, i was willing to write off the controller, but the experience of seeing a good amount of the insides firsthand was a welcome time.
So glad to see you have released new content. I enjoy your take on the products you cover. Its been a while. I was growing concerned and certainly anticipating your next vid. I hope everything is good in your hood. If you ever need to talk to someone verry anon,reach out. Sounds wierd sure but i kno what its like to not be able to talk to the ppl i kno and i just want you to kno at least theres one person some where out there you can turn to.
I recently got this fix for my Razer Wolverine Ultimate and after soldering everything into place and adjusting I can tell you that they aren't a permanently dependable fix. Sure they allow you to adjust the minimum rest position which in theory will fix stick drift, they for whatever reason limit the maximum deadzone to the point where you don't even have full circularity anymore, and then honestly they just threw the whole joystick sensing out of whack. I ended up having to learn how to remove solder shortly after utilizing this "fix". Still waiting on someone to figure out a better fix so I don't have to toss my $150 Razer controller (which I love).
Thank god u comeback
I've been loving your videos man. I recently made an entire Razer Blade 3070 Ti Setup, I'm thinking about getting one of their controllers too. After some research of course though.
love your videos im just wondering what controller you use on a everyday basis and what controller is good for a 70-100$ budget?
Me planning on sleeping early
Cuda: uploads at 4 in the morning
Will you be covering the extremerate stick drift kits?
I have like 3 power A controller and two with drift so thanks for the info
If you’re in there soldering and spending $15 you might as well solder a new stick in there. These things make you lose movement range because the smd pots on them are only 50kohm. All of them do, not just this brand, even the new extremerate ones only use 50k smd pots.
Thoughts about the elite 2 core?
had the powera fusion 2 for a year now, no problem with stick drift. Before that the xbox elite controller developed stick drift in under 3 months. The trick is to never use the L3 and R3 keys because that is what causes the sticks to wear out. Just rebind those keys to the extra keys and voila you are all set for a long lasting controller
Yep, same here. I have 2500 hours of use on mine, Fusion 2 are built better than elite controllers and can be had for $60 around black friday. (Bought mine 2 years ago around then)
hey cuda which thumbsticks are smoother scuf instinct pro or elite series 2
Out of, thrustmaster master x, victrix gambit, elite series 2, razer v2 and the other razer, i dont own power A. For fps use what is the best controller? And can u put them into a tier list,
Vcuda
I want an Xbox pro controller out of every controller witch one do you recommend the most
I want it for FPS games
when will the dual shock 4 controller video come out?
Can you review the prox wing/prox dragon same controller just different pattern
are you going to do a review for battle beaver?
Please I just bought one I need to stress out
Lol, Ol' funny azz, corny azz nukka!
Welcome back :)
Hey bro can you do this for the scuf instint pro, cause i got mad stick drift and im trying to fix it
can you tell us how you messed up soldering so we dont make the same mistake?
you know the xbox360 triggers use potentiometers? For xbox controllers that is the original standard
Armour x paddle review?
Hey can you please make a uplodet Video over the best xbox controller for xbox
Is the wolverine tournament discontinued? i want to buy one but can’t find them
Idk how, but I have won the PowerA lottery 4 times. 2 different fusion pro 1s, and 2 different spectra enhanced, two still running with no issue, the only reason they were bought is because my brother absolutely shattered the originals. I've had my second fusion pro for almost 2 years now and it runs absolutely flawlessly, although it doesn't get used all that much anymore due to the fact I got a gambit for fighting and shooting games, and only use my fusion for low-wear driving games
You didn’t win a lottery, you just don’t game 24/7 a day for the entire week
Yeah, strangely my original fusion has somehow survived too. That's one of the biggest Downsides with controller gaming, it kinda relies on you being lucky enough to not destroy your controller due to usage. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it happens over and over again. It really just depends on chance, and proper care of the device
I never won anything in my entire fucking life, and I'm 6468 years old.
how do you like the gambit ? is it better for shooters ? i'm stuck between getting the gambit and the V2 chroma . i love the mechanical face buttons of my wolverine ultimate , even tho my Y gets stuck sometimes , and my scuf instinct pro has the best triggers ever . despite the clicky buttons of the wolverine , i'm not a big fan of the back button design , kind of uncomfortable & ik the victrix has a nice back button layout i just need someone to convince me to go one way or the other 😂😂
@@ushallN0tpass well, there's your answer lol. You don't like the button design on the Wolverine Ultimate, and the v2 Chroma has the same button design. So you'd likely enjoy the gambit more
What’s up man it’s been a while
can you review the pdp rematch
I installed the stick drift fix on my ps5 controller and the fix worked (I can recenter my stick) but the input regestration is completly messed up, the stick is no more precise at all.
Saw discount on elite 2 and the recent Amazon reviews are surprisingly positive
Should I get it?
It depends on the discount. If it's under, I'd say 120 130 USD then it's probably a solid deal
I can't believe today my razer wolverine ultimate stopped working completely when I barely used it and was starting to like it. While playing r6 with friends and voice chat all of a sudden it shot of and I used the cable it came with for other things and it works great and all i can see for a few seconds when i plug the controller is a very faint light on the profile change button and it doesn't do anything else. Nor in xbox nor pc. Is my controller officially dead can it be repaired? I don't wanna lose a expensive controller I barely used :-\
PLEASE REVIEW THE razer wolverine v2 pro!!!!!!!
I feel attacked lol the Drift fix worked perfectly on my Spectra. It just cost me my Left Trigger 😂
Ugh, just asking, maybe... in case... could there be a chance that you disabled the memberships?
Are you reviewing the new 8BitDo ultimate bluetooth controller with Hall Effect sticks?
Yes, mid December!
@@vCuda Cool. Thanks. I bought one last week on AliExpress and it should arrive by mid December.
Victrix BFG when?
1 year mark coming up on the v2 chroma ive had no problems rn
is the fusion pro 2 controller durable? how long does it normally take for stick drift?
I got mine at the start of the 2020 pandemic and have been using it pretty nonstop and it’s just now drifting. “Durable” is subjective but thought I’d tell you my experience.
Got a power a controller 2 months ago never eat food when playing and it already has bad stick drift
Can we truly consider lowering the controller's sensitivity through a hardware deadzone adjustment as a "fix"? I'd imagine it's temporary.
I just got rid of my wolverine ultimate cause it was messing up my hands... Has anyone made a controller good for people with carpal tunnel ?
I recovered from nintendonitus (tendonitis) I have a trackball mouse on my PC and I took the back buttons off my Xbox series elite 2. On my PC I have the cheap pdp rematch plugged in it is lightweight and has buttons not wings. Just avoid heavy controllers with winged back buttons.
That's 6 days where is the new video?
Same as PowerA, Nacon uses potentiometers in their triggers as well. They shit themselves in about 2 months tops if you play racing games.
This is the worst idea ever and I plan to make a video about it oke day calling out PowerA, Thrustmaster, and now I suppose nacon. The potentiometers are literally the cause of drift yet they choose to use them for the triggers! Lmao
@@vCuda Indeed. I got a Nacon Asymmetrical a year ago and in a couple of weeks I noticed my throttle (I mainly play racing games) started getting weird. Turns out the values were drifting all over the place. I open it up and hol'up... are those 1$ aliexpress potentiometers on the the triggers? Funny, cause triggers started drifting before the thumbsticks this time around.
I a. About to get it and pay someone to put it cuz I can't soder I do t how to sell the word
If you don't know how to solder, just use conductive glue.
Yay I am early
Any of these modifications with the glue gun thing scare me too much
It isn't insanely difficult, but depending on what you're doing it could be tricky. With these PowerA controllers the job is quite tricky, so I'd only recommend it those capable
Meh, soldering aint all that bad, my 1st time soldering was customizing a Mayflash F500 with CherryMX switches in the buttons. I will say tho, DE-soldering is the tricky part....
Wish I could give you a like for the comedy timing, but it currently sits at 69 soooooooo
This man's a hero, take this 👑
do not but razer simple as 😭😭 they're so breakable, had 3 of them and they're all broken in some way
Im on my second PowerA controller 1st brand new huge drift in right stack. Today a picked a new one and have the same issue...tomorrow returning it. My 2 year old Xbox controllers dont have such drift 🤦. This controllers are a joke.
My razer wolverine ultimate has shit its self and stopped working so anyone here want to recommend ways i can destroy it
Same here, I can't talk to people because my mic doesn't work on that controller. I've updated it and it still doesn't work yet my mic works on my other controllers
Cuda I unsubscribed just to see if the color of the Subscribe button is red and when I unsubscribe it has a red subscribe button our letters where you hit subscribe so they are red at least on my version maybe I have an old version of UA-cam still I don't know
And yes I I resubscribed LOL
Yea power A is just garbage lesom learned
Exactly bc they are cheap and made out of real scrapped Xbox controllers
It's crazy, how bad the quality is mine developed a stick issue in like 3 or 4 months
i messaged him after i had bought the regular ones and put them on the power a roller and i know he questioned the amount of functioning brain cells i had left after i sent him the horific picture of how i did it
Fury
Make controllers great again. 😅
Hey, I just had my membership cancelled and my latest donation refunded. I hope everything it OK.
Dude, I really hope all is ok. Your work is valuable and you deserve to be paid for the *work* you do reviewing products. Please turn your memberships back on and offer a higher than 99 cent tier.
sa
Hey Donny sweetie 😘🥰
Hey boo thaaang!
I will say this at all. The controllers I've had. The fusion pro 1 doesn't have any stick drift no matter how long you have it, That thing will not drift at least every controller I've had and I've had about six. And if you really want to finesse these companies that are trying to finesse us, do what I do, buy a controller or take it back every month I get it from Walmart have three Walmarts surrounding me and I just alternate returning s*** to them so it doesn't look like I'm showing up all the time 💯🤣
I like way more the grey button
not worth it
Good games already have a dead zone setting. Otherwise keep your controller covered when your not using it my battle beaver is almost 2 years old and it’s because I don’t constantly smash R3 and I keep the dust out
When you increase the deadzone value in game, you lose a ton of micro adjustment accuracy. Deadzones make it so your stick doesn't function within the area the stick drift is happening, but the problem is, it becomes harder to make small adjustments when aiming. Trust me, if deadzones did the same thing, I wouldn't be covering these lol
