Xbox One Elite V1 thumbstick not registering fully in a single direction

smartxalex · Mar 13, 2020

Hey guys,

I'm having an issue with an elite controller I just purchased. The right thumbstick doesn't seem to register fully when pushed in the right direction. I have tried firmware updates, resetting the controller, and even trying to change how the thumb stick
registers but it the issue persists, never reaching the threshold to register a full input. In a game where camera is controlled by right thumb stick, this causes the camera to turn slowly when moving it to the right. Has anyone else experienced this and
is there a solution?

Since it is a new purchase you might consider taking it back and exchanging it.

It is terrible to see that so many 180 dollars controllers have so many issues. Although my Elite Series 2 is working fine many people do have thumbstick issues. What most people do is contact support on their site to get a replacement. Even though sometimes
the replacement also breaks.

if the directions say to only send the controller and to not include any removable parts then you should do that.

if you want to double check, reply to the email you got from Support and ask them if the shipping instructions for the Elite V2 are the same as the Elite V1

I have a white Elite V1 controller, and a standard Xbox One Bluetooth controller. Both get used a lot because one is synced to my console, and one to my PC.

I have the same problem with buttons A, Y (btw same it was on my elite v1 controller but i did not care much). If you press them in some angle or gently they are not registered you have apply more force. I am getting to return controller. I suggest you
to do same and buy Razer Wolverine Ultimate Xbox One Controller buttons there are much much better.
