hey guys, have any of you ever cracked one open?
one of my controllers has a very bad "drift" on one of the thumbsticks. its hard to aim when the stick is floating all over the place

i was wondering if i should open 'er up and see if there was anything that i could do to tighten it up.

There is nothing to adjust but a good cleaning might help

thanks wil, ill give that a try.
the problem that im having is it never wants to return to center. if i push it slightly left it will stay left, if i push it slightly right it will stay right. it also is a lot looser than my newer controller.
maybe ill give it a cleaning and see if that helps.
