Stick drift? Fixed for good.

We upgrade both thumbsticks on your PS5, PS4 or Xbox Series controller to premium TMR modules. They read the stick with magnets, so there's nothing inside to wear out and drift. £35, repaired within 2 working days and posted back tracked.

Full postal guide

Why TMR

Your sticks drift because they rub. Ours don't.

Standard sticks use a wiper scraping a carbon track. That track wears, and wear means drift. TMR sensors read a magnet instead, so the cause of drift is gone.

FAQ

Questions, answered

All FAQs

How much does stick drift repair cost?

£35 per controller. That covers both sticks upgraded to premium TMR modules, a clean, calibration, before-and-after testing and tracked return postage. You only pay to post it to us.

How long does the repair take?

We repair it within 2 working days of it arriving, then send it back Royal Mail Tracked 48. Allow around 6 working days door to door if you post with a 48-hour tracked service.

What are TMR sticks?

TMR stands for tunnel magnetoresistance. TMR sticks read the stick's position using a magnet, so nothing rubs inside the sensor. That's the wear that causes drift in standard potentiometer sticks.

Will my controller feel different?

It feels the same in your hand: same caps, height and tension. The difference is a cleaner, more stable centre.

What if you can't fix my controller?

We'll contact you first and post it back tracked. If we can't repair it because of damage that was already there, we keep £15 for inspection and tracked return postage and refund £20. If we can't repair it for a reason that's down to us, you get the full £35 back.

Dead centre. Every time.

Both sticks upgraded to TMR for £35. Posted back Royal Mail Tracked 48.
