Since the beginning we have had a special place in our hearts for DIY and at-home solutions, so we like to spread the news whenever there is a tried and true solution to one of the many problems we all face. We have been using this program extensively in the office, ensuring its ability to recalibrate the DualShock 4 and DualSense controllers, and now we would like to promote its use far and wide.

Before following this guide, please see our article on understanding what thumbstick drift is and how it can influence in-game settings:

This program samples where your thumbsticks sit naturally and then 'resets' your X and Y axis default positions to (0,0). Thumbstick mechs naturally change over time with use, so the manufacturer's calibration won't match forever. This program samples your thumbstick's current resting position, then 'resets' the calibration so it reads as (0,0). While the hardware itself and using your controller in general will affect these values, this tool can help ensure that their calibration is as close to a true zero as possible.

This is not guaranteed to fix stick drift. If your controller's thumbstick mechanisms are too old or too worn down, you most likely should have them replaced instead of using this tool. This tool can only move values to a better position; it cannot bring a physically broken mech back from the dead.

Battle Beaver is not responsible for any damage or unintended outcomes to modifying your controller with this tool. 

Please read all of the instructions before and during the recalibration process.
