Y Axis Not Returning Fully to Center

Hello all,

I am having a really frustrating issue where my Y axis is not returning to the 32767 value. It usually gets stuck at 33248 on the VKB config software. This causes me to constantly pitch up in every game I play. Are there any suggestions?

I've tried following all of the official instructions for setup and have calibrated and reset the joystick. I would like to avoid having to open the stick if possible. Am I missing something simple?

Your images won't load. What firmware and software are you running? If not sure please post a screenshot with VKBDevCfg running.

I got the images to work now - updated original post. Running VKB Device Config v0.92.17 and NJoy32 firmware v2.08.0

Follow these steps to flash to the latest firmware and calibrate; don't forget to include your ministick in the calibration.

Hey, thanks for the tips. I made sure to follow those instructions carefully but I still seem to be having the same issue after about 2 hours of gameplay. It seems even worse now. Please let me know of anything else I can try. I am not touching the stick in the screenshot.

There was a batch of NXTs with a loose magnet on the Y axis; yours might be one of them. To find out follow this guide and see if the magnet has became loose. Be careful when removing the grip and when installing it back on the base.

Thank you! Mine seemed fairly loose as it came out when I put the screwdriver on top of it. Hopefully this solves it. :)

So you glued it in place?
