NOTICE: If you have previously had your sticks replaced and 3rd party sticks were used (Ginfull, K-Silver, GuliKit, etc), they will need to be replaced since this service only uses OEM ALPS stick boxes and ALPS-compatible TMR stick modules due to the high quality design of ALPS stick boxes. If you have not had them serviced before, you already have ALPS Stick Boxes
Definitions:
Stick Box: A Stick Box refers to the enclosure, usually made of metal, that houses two plastic arcs controlling each axis, a spring that provides tension and is in charge of centering the stick, and the shaft which the stick cap sits upon.
Stick Cap: Stick Caps are the rubber/silicone topped plastic piece that your thumbs rest upon.
Stick Modules: Stick Modules are what are in charge of in-game movement, they clip onto the side of the stick box, one for each axis, totalling two per stick box.
Repair Stick Drift
This service totally replaces the original drift-prone wiper-style potentiometer stick modules with drift-immune ALPS-compatible TMR (Tunnel Magnetoresistance) Stick Modules. The only thing you may potentially need to do over time is recalibrate your stick due to physical stick box wear. If this ever happens, you can recalibrate your sticks here.
Replace Stick Box
This replaces the old stick box with a fresh ALPS Stick Box. This is an option you’ll want to select if you’re experiencing issues with L3/R3 not working/working inconsistently, if your stick is unusually wobbly, or if you’re needing this service done on a controller that’s using 3rd party sticks (as mentioned in the NOTICE section).
