Gladiator NXT premium - Y-Axis calibration problem

[maa0w]

Hello,

I have two "Gladiator NXT Premium" joysticks that I really appreciate.
But sometimes my "Gladiator Right" joystick changes its Y axis value. The zero is no longer the same and points either a little up or a little down.

Here is a screenshot of the software. The Y value is not always the same.



To solve the problem, I have to disconnect it, reconnect and perform the calibration procedure.

Do you have any idea where this might come from please?

Thanking you,
Greetings

Seems like an existing issue with a number of Gladiators where the magnet on the Y axis becomes unglued and slips during regular use. The fix is to open it up and reglue the magnet in place; it's a relatively easy procedure, takes about 20 minutes and it's explained here.
