Controller stick

default is inverted. the right stick controls roll and pitch. left stick controls the rudder

@ArfElas 3512 I have been looking into the Elite controller - our controllers keep having the left stick break where it keeps the 'drifting' the curser/arrow/gun or whatever the game uses that stick for.

I was thinking that maybe with that controller I would be able to fix it myself by replacing the stick but I am not sure if the issue is in the stick itself or the mechanism that is controlling the stick.

What is your thought...

Hi there! This is Ronnie, your fellow Xbox gamer.

Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

I understand you need help on your controller problem.

Let's check some steps on what we can do about this.

First, you may try to check if the controller needs an update.

Here is a link for instructions on how to update the controller:

If that does not work, I would already suggest checking the warranty and send it for service if the controller is still within the warranty period.

Hope that helps!

Hello Rusty Blackwell,

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

I can see that you are having trouble with your controller. It sounds like your right stick might be experiencing some drift or calibration issues. There are a few possible solutions that you can try to fix this problem.



First, you can try to update your controller firmware. To do this, you need to connect your controller to your console or PC with a USB cable, and then go to Settings > Devices & connections > Accessories. Select your controller and then select Firmware version. If there is an update available, follow the instructions on the screen to install it.



Second, you can try to reset your controller. To do this, you need to press and hold the Xbox button on your controller until it turns off. Then, press and hold the Xbox button again until it turns on. You can also remove the batteries from your controller and reinsert them after a few seconds.



Third, you can try to recalibrate your controller. To do this, you need to go to Settings > Ease of Access > Controller. Select Configure and then select Test input. You can then move your right stick around and see if it responds correctly. If not, you can select Calibrate and follow the instructions on the screen to adjust the sensitivity and dead zones of your right stick.
