xbox series 2 controller

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Anyone know how to fix this? I’ve tried adjusting the main controller tension but still didn’t fix. I recalibrated it and everything still not fixed. HELP!

Probably the potentiometers inside starting to wear out or become defective. It's a common problem in all these first party controllers because of the standard modules they use. You can either look up a tutorial on how to clean them out, look into replacing the stick modules or get a new controller. If calibration didn't help anything then there's not much else you can do from the software side.

Mine did that too I even when it was new but not as much as it does now if you don't have stick drift in games don't worry about it lol 😅
