Thanks for the video, I read in Reddit several people complain about the square area of the sticks and having issues with calibration, but looking at your video I couldn’t see any issue when you were moving the sticks around in the calibration menu. The other thing is that a lot of reviews I’ve seen do not mention the calibration button just the software calibration, but as far as I know for optimal results you should do both, so thank you for mentioning that part. I’m still going to wait until one of my sticks stops working properly to get a pair, but I’m convinced these will work great now.

After 14 months of regular use I still have my deadzone set to 4000 without drift and I could probably go lower. I have had to use Konsole to calibrate the left stick before though and it has slightly more wiggle room in the deadzones than the right one which is the same as when I first got it. It's good to know there is an easy replacement and having a Halls effect controller for my main PC has left me tempted to grab the GuliKit sticks, minimal deadzones feel much more responsive.

Good video. Gave it a thumbs-up. A potential side-effect of more people buying this hall effect joysticks is Valve might consider partnering with GuliKit in the future with the next iteration of the Steam Deck(aka. Steam Deck 2) for the joystick components.

Gulikit KingKong Pro2 controller has been my go-to for a couple years now. I was iffy about attempting soldering with the original replacement Deck sticks so I'm incredibly happy to see these and under $25 on Amazon right now. I'm planning an SSD upgrade anyway so why not replace the sticks at the same time

@abstractedbluestar9245 11 ай бұрын

How did that go im thinking of doing the same thing!

@XxDrac13xX 11 ай бұрын

@abstractedbluestar9245 it was really simple. The hardest part was calibrating the sticks. I can't use console commands to recalibrate them since I'm running WinDeckOS instead of SteamOS, so I was stuck with fiddling with the tiny button on the back side of the stick units. The right stick was perfect out of the box, left took some time to get it centered. I used an external M.2 dock to initialize the SSD and then clone the OS drive before installing it so I wouldn't have to re-load WinDeckOS and go through the process to sign back in to everything

I just completed replacing the stick using your guide here. Calibration method 1 did nothing but #2 solved it. The command though is 'thumbstick underscore cal' and not hyphen. Did the upgrade because the left stick had drift in the downwards direction. Characters would walk towards the screen and menus would go down. No amount of calibration would resolve it enough. *thumbs up*

One thing I want to add - it is useful to reduce dead zone after replacement. It makes stick more sensible (since we have more room for movement) and it still doesn’t drift. Personally I reduced it to minimal value, feels more precise than original

I installed this new kit recently along side my new extremerate shell. I had a problem with one of the sticks. It could be due to the shell but I'm not sure. The sensor wire would make a clicking noise when you rotate the stick as if it was getting caught on something. I had to grind away the epoxy with a Dremel and resoldered the wire to round the other way. Now it is perfect; no more clicking! Maybe something to note if you are doing this with a custom shell.

The Gulikit joysticks directly output 100% on X and Y when doing the same, which causes them to not be linear. Can anyone confirm this issue?

advice: dont fix what isnt broken. if youre somebody that DOESNT experience stick drift on the steam deck currently, you'll virtually feel no difference. understand what a fix is, its to prevent from messing up again. only utilize these sticks if you absolutely have to

You could also make an argument for not waiting for them to break. Stick drift isn't a big problem on the deck yet but eventually they will drift, and with how easy it is to install these and how affordable they are I don't see it as a big deal, but I agree it's not a must have if your sticks work. Thanks for watching and commenting! -Aish

My left stick started to drift a while back so I opened up my Steam Deck, took out the stick and use compressed air. The stick worked like new after that. I ended up buying the guli kit stick so I won't have to worry about doing this ever again while I don't have my tools on me. Also less dead zone! I feel like I have more control on the inputs I make in the games I play!

From what I could find out I noticed the original sticks on my Steam Deck were noticeably prone to develop drift. I'm glad I replaced them. Twice on my old sticks drift would show up on my right stick and would not go away untill I kept moving the stick round a circle and it fixed it too. I'm guessing it was dust or some used up analog plastic.

You replace them so you won't ever have to deal with stick drift. It's preventative maintenence

Do you take your car in for a yearly service or do you only go to a mechanic when something actually break? Better to have drift-free stick and not need them than to need them and not have them 🤷🏾‍♂️

The step of removing the memory card should be first. Broke mine.

How did that happen ? I've honestly forgotten a few times but still haven't broken one. -Aish

There's a pinned comment explaining that I made a mistake during the voice over section, and has the correct command. -Aish

I disagree that it's worth it to do this immediately if you're already happy with the existing sticks. If you _do_ get drift at some point, these will probably be still available.

@retrohandhelds Жыл бұрын

Like with any upgrade if the current set up is working then it's not necessary, but since it's so easy to do and it's relatively inexpensive I would say it's worth it 😁

Mine is only 3 months old I don't need these but I have to see if I have the right type, Im buying these immedietly just so I'll already have them incase something happens.
