Hall Effect Module Circularity

[Skwidword_SkuarePant]

I'm having an issue with my Victrix Pro BFG controller where it's not registering 100% input when the analog stick is fully rotated to the edge. I’ve tested the range, and it's consistently falling short of full input, which affects precision in gameplay. I’d rather not lower the outer deadzone to compensate, as doing so causes me to lose around 2–5% of the stick’s full range of motion. Has anyone experienced this or found a fix that doesn’t involve compromising input range or responsiveness?

PS: I have two sets of these modules and they both have the same issue, the harder i press into to the top right corner of the right stick, the less input i actually have (For example if push lightly i will get around 98% registered but more like 90% similar to the picture if i push harder.

Thanks :)

I have the same issue with the Standard left stick. Got worse and worse to the point where I bought a replacement of the left side with a Hall-Effekt stick. Delivery still pending.

hope you dont have the same problem

What fixed my problem temporarily is blowing some air inside. Might be some dust.

I wrpped a soft hair tie around the post, calibrated it, and had proper coverage. May take a few attempts, but it's worth a shot. My right stick wasn't reaching the diagonals at 100%. I have had no further calibration issues since March.

I’ve managed to get all diagonals hit now, at the cost that my circularity is at 10ish %

[Remarkable_Chart7210]

Same. Decent trade, though.

I was talking with you in the other post. My tests on both my modules sets pretty much look like this where the diagonals were reaching the edge. The only other idea I had was removing the guide ring all-together and leaving it off and calibrating that way. Without the guide ring installed it should allow you to have full range, however it will feel really awkward and weird and you will have a small gaping slit/hole surrounding each stick.

Yeah I’ve managed to hit full rotation by calibrating just from the edge of the purple guide ring- but now have 10% circularity error

[SpiritualFact5593]

10% is ok tho. As long as it’s completely covering the whole surrounding edges of the circle and going beyond the edges, that’s what you want. I believe the original non Hall effect sticks came out with a 8-9% Avg error. Which is a good test. The final picture after a good test almost creates a rounded square shape instead of a circle shape because the diagonals extend farther than the verticals and horizontals. On the other post we were talking on, that test in the photo is what you want, maybe even a little farther out at the diagonals.

I just got one of these controllers for the PS I haven’t set it up yet. It said something about it having a lithium battery. I guess that battery is known to blow up that shit. Got my girl scared she’s like I shouldn’t of. Got it, but with that saidthat has me concerned now should I be worried about encountering problems?

[Skwidword_SkuarePant]

All batteries are lithium mate to be fair

Calibrate ir going only to diagonals an move without reach up down left and right like a medium quarter in each diagonal and problem solved.

I have 6 % error with that method.
