GuliKit TMR Joystick Replacement Module for PS4 DualShock Controller

Great replacement for the original drift heavy Xbox sticks. The added joystick caps are actually pretty nice as well, feel about the same and have an added metal ring on the stem to reduce plastic dust and wear and tear. Would definitely recommend these as a replacement since they're cheaper than a new controller and helps prevent further e-waste. Hopefully will never have to replace them anytime soon (or ever again?). For those who are perhaps a bit uneasy about de-soldering and soldering in general, check with your local game stores to see if they can replace them. So long as you provide the sticks and do the re-calibration (the Xbox itself can walk you through it) then I'm sure they'd probably do it for a cheaper price then buying another controller.

any PS4 should update these. i did a full video on the replacement of them, its easy. combine this with a battery upgrade and your set for life, no more drift! TMR is Tunnel Magnetic Resistance. and its magnetics vs carbon disk rubbing that causes the wear which causes the drift. here is my video on it i hope this helps sell you on these. they are easy to replace with a little soldering, they fit perfectly and work great. and not expensive at all!! great value.

This is the best product to aquire if you are looking to avoid stick drift and constant recalibration. I've had this on both of my PS5 remotes for a year with constant use and they hold strong. Installation does require some desolderingg and resoldering, so if you are tech savvy, This job is easy. This price is well worth its weight in its use ability.

These have saved many controllers around my house. They work great. Not super easy to install until you figure out how to remove the solder Sony uses. My advice investing in a good solder vacuum. Fit perfect, great texture on top, have lasted quite awhile , good replacement for failing factory sticks when they get drift.

These are high quality replacements for the original sticks and work perfectly, even with the deadzones in games completely turned down to 0. They should last basically forever too. Definitely worth the price. The replacement stick caps feel a bit low quality, so I just reused the ones that were on the controller to begin with. Don't be intimidated by having to solder these on. Soldering is extremely easy and you can learn how to do it from watching a couple YouTube videos. Desoldering factory solder is a bit trickier, but you could probably go to an electronic repair shop and have them install the new sticks for somewhat cheap if you don't want to figure it out yourself.

These sticks are dream come true...Don't know how else to say it really...I installed them myself using leaded solder nice and flush to the board, calibrated them using a free tool online and I can't say I've ever had such a premium controller experience like this. These deliver a smooth, stutter free, zero point, driftless experience like no other. They feel better than the stock potentiometers that come standard and PRE BROKEN from Sony and whoever their supplier is. The only reason I did not give this 5 stars is because one of the sticks has a very strange double click when it is depressed to function as a L3 or R3. Only one stick seems to be affected by this and I doubled back over the internals to make sure I didn't make a mistake or that there weren't any structural supports missing within the chassis. It is only a mild annoyance in reality and 90% of what was annoying about it is it making me second guess my installation work for a few hours. These offer a SMOOTH, PEERLESS experience that I imagine comes with expensive 3rd party controllers. I definitely recommend!

This product works very well, I have high hopes that stick drift possibility will be eliminated entirely but only time will tell me that, I will update in a couple of months. As for now there is a trade off that buyers should be aware of and that is that these sticks require you to use the thumb-stick provided, it doesn’t screw on like the factory sticks instead it pushes on directly. It makes me concerned that it will come off during gameplay. This also takes away the ability to swap out the magnet sticks this controller comes with so there is no more stick customization what comes with this pack is what you get. In my opinion this is a fair trade for never getting stick drift again if the advertised feature is to be believed but once again time will tell. As for installation, this is not something that the average Joe should try you need at least basic soldering equipment and knowledge. If you don’t have that take it to a local repair shop and ask about possibly installing these for you. In conclusion so far these sticks are great after recalibration and I will be buying again for more controllers in the future. ( I was not paid to make this review )

Review Update - June 24, 2026: Nearly a year later and these things are STILL going strong, making this officially the longest I've had a controller in this generation. They have shown zero signs of drift or error. A controller typically wouldn't last me more than 3-6 months under standard potentiometers, I have now easily doubled and can very potentially, triple this number. These things are a longevity godsend, and it is completely mystifying why companies are still gravitating towards tech meant to fail easily. They really DO stand the test of time, so much that other parts of the controller are starting to show signs of wear, but this is from normal use and it still works like the day I had these installed. Typically I change my review down the line on either the positive or negative spectrum, though sadly for this particular one, I have to leave it at 4 stars, only because the thumbsticks are half the product, and as mentioned in my original review, I did not use them in my setup, which means half the product was not useful to me. This however, still gets high marks and endless praise for it's longevity promise, which it definitely held up to. I fully expect another component on the controller to fail well before the sticks now. Original review is below. To start: Most modern controllers are made with the same potentiometer design with a graphite trace and metal wiper design. Eventually, either contaminants, wear to the wiper, or wear to the trace all cause a bad read on the stick position, causing the dreaded phenomenon among gamers known as stick drift. I have a DualSense controller I had taken out of storage due to countless others that have hit the controller graveyard not due to other problems, but due to this one fault. I decided that enough was enough, and that there was no reason to be junking controllers due to a fault of one cheap part. So instead of using this particular one right out of the box, I decided to give TMR sticks a try. This problem is not exclusive to the DualSense - controller design has been using this same solution for the past 15-20 years and shows no signs of changing. It has been the death of many a controller, even though nothing else may be wrong with it. This kit, promises to fix that. Or, at the very least, give it a more reasonable lease on life before total failure. Main point that everyone should know about this before buying: Installation of this kit will be next to impossible unless you have some idea of how to solder components to a PCB. I at the time of this writing do not, which prompted me to first seek out someone who could perform the service. If you do not have prior knowledge on how to do this, seeking someone out who knows should be your first priority before even considering this. The kit came with two TMR modules for soldering, and two thumbsticks to retrofit onto the top of the modules once the job is complete. For my install, I sought out a local electronics repair shop. Almost any reputable electronics shop will have tools and professionals who can solder or micro-solder. This will be enough for the job. I asked them to install these onto the motherboard for the DualSense and all they would charge me is the fee to do so. I ended up asking them to only install the modules, with the stock DualSense thumbsticks. I did not use the ones that came with the kit, only because I was already used to the stock ones. I did not like the feel, grip, or circumference of the ones that came with the kit. The circumference of the top is less than that of a stock DualSense thumbstick. Although the thumbstick is rubberized, the top had this smooth plastic feel to it, even though it is clearly rubber. The only grip that I saw on it was ribbing on the outer edge. Presumably, the thumbsticks the kit comes with are a detachable design, and are advertised as being so to attach sticks of different heights. Here's the catch though: These other heights are not included in this package, and are sold separately by Gulikit. The only purpose in detaching the sticks that I would find without owning this kit is to clean them when dirty. Being that the repair shop did the installation of the hardware, I cannot comment on how easy this installation might be. I am under the assumption it depends solely on how handy you are with hardware. Initially, after the repair shop installed these, they had analog circularity error sitting at 12-14%. Stock DualSense potentiometers typically have around 7-9% circularity error on average. That is, until I learned that they had attempted to calibrate them in-house. What tool they used for this is unknown, but it is extremely important that you read the product description on Amazon before and after installing these - Gulikit has a dedicated test and calibration website made available directly in a browser for calibrating this brand of TMR sticks. This should be the tool you use for these particular ones. It's also very important that you do exactly as the tool says, not following its instructions could leave your deadzone sitting elsewhere on the stick, instantly causing drift, or it will raise the circularity on the stick throw to one side or another. After I used the tool on my home PC, circularity error on the sticks dropped down to between 2-4%. That dropped any questions about the quality of the part. Had I not known much about software calibration, this is something that could have very much damaged my experience with them. As for how long they will last, I cannot say for certain. But being that there are no wipers or traces and magnetoresistance is used instead, I imagine the durability should at the very least, be far longer than parts grinding up on each other, wearing down their durability over time. I am quite literally taking it on good faith that this will be the controller that lasts me the longest, well into another console generation. So far I have tested it on multiple games, and I can say that deadzone settings on games can once again be lower than if I did have stick drift, but not completely eliminated. It is important to understand that absolutely no analog input will be completely 0 on both X and Y axis, there is always some offset, even if it is very small. Also, games may offer you deadzone settings, while others do not and have a predetermined deadzone hard programmed into the game. Your mileage will vary, but this is why you tweak settings when they are available. The important thing is that the offset does not affect the experience. And these perform very well, even on very low deadzone settings. As stated on the box, TMR work best when throwing the stick in a cardinal direction. They keep their heading unless you make a small movement, which does not make them any more or less precise than potentiometers. I cannot say the same is true for Hall Effect, as I have never owned a controller with Hall Effect to make the comparison. So far overall, I like the product very much, but it is broadly inaccessible to a wide audience unless you have a certain subset of skills and tools, namely hardware, and software knowledge. This is hardly a failure of the kit however, as it is explained that certain skills are expected of you. What I also found is that you must plan ahead for both scenarios equally or this will end in failure. I also ended up not using the included thumbsticks, which is half the product. I did not find them useful, but you may, especially if your stock thumbsticks are badly worn and need replacement. About price: Consider your baseline knowledge into the price. Buying them from Amazon will literally be the price you pay if you understand exactly what to do and not have to pay someone else to do it. If you must pay service fees to shops for either the hardware or software components of this modification, you can easily double or triple the price of this at the end of everything.

12月9日に交換しました、商品はとてもよく動作も完璧でしたが、交換する際壊れたスティックを取るのに時間がかかりました、使った半田ごては７０ｗクラスだったのですが半田が溶けず１００ｗ以上クラスがほしいところですね。後、キャリブレーションをしないといけません、しないとセンターが出ないので

Joystick s’arrête des fois un peu sur le côté, ce qui me fait quand même avoir du Drift

These have breathed new life into my limited edition xbox controller that kept getting stick drift issues. Even after disassembling and cleaning the potentiometers twice on the original, drift would come back after a couple of months. Couldn't bear to part with my beloved controller so fitted these into it and have had zero problems since. Very happy that the original thumbsticks are compatible with this, so the external look of my controller hasn't changed. Installation of the first took a long time as my desoldering pump was old and clogged, but once I replaced that the second one was replaced in 10 minutes! I will say that the installation is for more experienced solderers, but worth the time. Feeling very confident in the quality of these sticks, while they have a slightly different feel to the original, it's only noticeable for the first 30 minutes, then you no longer notice it (and they may even feel better than the original). Calibration was no problem and handled by the Xbox Accessories software, requiring no fiddling like a hall effect joystick would. Very happy with this purchase and the time I took to install them, now I no longer have to worry if my beautiful controller is going to become an annoying burden every few months!

A la medida para control dualsense edge, funciona excelentemente, otorga mayor precisión. Fácil de instalar y calibrar.
