Elite series 2 stick issues again

The problem is not just the on elite 2 controllers its a issue with all controllers that use the PDP program because i have 3 afterglow controllers that have problems with joy stick drift i also have 2 power A controllers that have problems with joy stick
drift as well and my brother has an elite 2 series controller that also has the same problem

Just get an exchange. Actually I wouldn‘t buy another one, the Elite 2 series seems to be pretty buggy. Stick with the Elite 1

Hello ShivaPike,

Welcome to the Xbox Community Forum! Thank you for sharing your concern with me today, I hope you're doing well. I understand that you have a question regarding the stick tension on the standard Series X controller and how it compares to the Elite Series 2 controller.



The standard Series X controller has a default stick tension that is not adjustable. However, the Elite Series 2 controller has adjustable stick tension with three different settings as you mentioned in your question. With the Elite Series 2 controller, you can increase or decrease the stick resistance according to your preference.



I understand that increased stick resistance may be helpful for you due to your neurological condition. I recommend trying out the Elite Series 2 controller in-store or with a friend who owns one to see if the highest resistance setting is suitable for you before making the investment.



Here is a link to the official Xbox support page that provides more information on adjusting the stick tension on the Elite Series 2 controller is the same link you provided: Adjust the sticks on your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 | Xbox Support

You may check try to check if customization of the controller could be your preference: Xbox Adaptive Controller | Xbox



I hope this information helps! Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

There was a new update released, can you try updating your Elite Series 2 controller again?

I also have the Elite Series 2 controller and I do not run into these issues when using it with the PC.

Bought it from sort of like a UK catalogue, i believe it's a trusted seller, as they replaced it the first time after showing proof of purchase.

i bought the controller in December 2019. It was then sent back in Jan for a replacement.

when i contacted the catalogue when i first had issues, they said i should contact Microsoft directly, which i did, for the first replacement.

now my theory is, the controller i received back was a refurbished controller, likely an older 1 back from when they first got released. Which is not my problem, surely it's theirs for sending me an older controller?

either way, i purchased it under 6 months ago, i still have emails from the 1st replacement, i tried attaching those photos when i requested a repair/replacement this time around. But to no joy!
