Xbox One Controller bizarre drift

MrDolfy · Nov 5, 2019

So, im having a very strange and irritating trouble with my xbox one controller. It just keeps drifting to three directions at the same time. I've already done a lot of things, like: Trying to update it, cleaning it, opening it up, change it's firmware,
etc. The only thing that i didn't do already is Change the analog or just get another controller, but thats something i wanna avoid. By the way, yes, it's strange behavior isn't exclusive only to my xbox. Its the same thing with my win10 PC, so im pretty sure
it is the controller's fault. Also, it did become " normal " one day, but few mins later, it descended into madness again.

So, what could it be?

Edit: The problem is the right analog

No cure for that. I replaced mine about two months ago for the same reason.

If it is under warranty contact
Xbox Support else you will have to replace the controller.

I would suggest you to check if that controller is within
warranty and ask for a replacement.

Hey there.

Not quite understanding what you mean by centerpoint. Is the controller drifting up? For steps on drifting controllers, check out our

Xbox One Controller Troubleshooter. Unfortunately for drifting issues, the controller would need to be repaired or replaced depending on your warranty status.

That is strange. I've only ever had stick drift on my old 360 controllers. I don't know if the standard Xbox one controllers have it, but the Xbox Elite controller sticks can be adjusted to have dead zones to avoid drift. Check in the Xbox Accessories
app if you can adjust it for normal controllers.

Have my elite controller set up and still drifts. Can't do standard controller. Did notice they drift worse on any COD.
