Also, I can confirm it fixed my light drift without having to replace the right stick. Wanted to give this a try before doing the replacement and to my surprise it did fix it! Not 100% but 95% of the drift its gone, also the range was massively improved, went from 13.1/13.8 to 5.3/7.3 🥳 Subbed!!

Another excellent video 👍 I had a go with the software this week and found it useful for correcting the off-centre joysticks that I had replaced. Just a couple of points to note: 1) the gamepad tester (and calibration software also?) will not work correctly in Firefox so I had to use Edge, and 2) fake controllers cannot be calibrated.

True, it's not going to make miracles happen with a worn out potentiometer joystick.

Will this work if connected to a Mac? Mine only goes to centre if it snaps back itself , if I slowly let it go to centre it’s off by 2% which is annoying in games that have no dead zone like inFamous but perfectly fine in COD which has adjustments and a default dead zone.

You are the men thanks alot just save 20€ for repair i raplace by my self analog but still get drift with this program i get circularity 5% which i better the new one from factory

Really useful, thanks! Tried it on my controller with a newly replaced potentiometer; well centred with nice circularity after a "permanent" calibration. However, the settings were all over the place after a little while, drifting appeared again and the stick was not centred anymore. Done a few times but still the same problem. Then I performed a controller reset right after the calibration, things seem to hold up so far. Will see.

The Hall sensor IC has a Hall effect sensor some amplifiers and in the case of the Ginful, some filtering. That all adds a bit of delay. The only delay for the potentiometers is how much capacitance is on the center tap.

Does this only work when the controller is plugged into pc or does the fix save and it will work on the console too?

Stick drift is caused by the potentiometers wearing out. The calibration might correct it for a while, but it would only be temporary.

Anything like this for Xbox controllers? Can see the issue issue coming back overtime but at least you can get a few months or so out of it. Amazing

There are some debug buttons at the bottom of the DualShock Calibration page. Check and see what the NVS status is when clicking on the NVS unlock and NVS lock buttons. The status should change. Also, try a hardware reset of the controller. Here are the instructions: www.playstation.com/en-us/support/hardware/troubleshoot-dualsense/ . I think the reset on the web page is a soft reset, but I am not sure about that. I would do the hardware reset and try the calibration again.
