Then the word of the fucking decade! BLOW! Holy shit it works now. You legend. If only the first guy found this video but hey. Saved me $50

    So the problem is caused by dirt in the joystick which makes sense why cleaning the sensor works (cleaning solution/ blowing).
    Changing the software settings to mask the issue is just a way of dealing with the symptoms of the issue.
