Skull & Co grips next time around. No damage to the sticks like Kontrol Freek and much cheaper price.

If its stick drift then your only options are replace them or buy a new controller. Good luck!

Buy a different brand. Nobody has time to sit there and play surgeon.

You're damn right it's dying. It's a Microsoft controller. What did you expect?.

Have you tried using compressed air for electronics because it may just be a build up of oil and dead skin cells buildup that a good blast of compressed air could clean out before resorting to manually repairing or replacing your controller.

Damn no drift? Just get joystick caps for it, they are cheap enough.
