Gulikit Left joy con drifts at start

Hey, all! I recently got the Guilikit TMR Joy Cons to replace my old ones. I followed the video, did both left and right, then did the calibration. They both work great, except, sometimes when launching a game, the left one will have a very slight drift to the left. If I leave it alone for about 30 seconds, it stops. If I open the calibrating menu, it shows no movement. Also, it doesn't do it every time. The stick works great, otherwise, even on the times that it does drift.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Hey!

Does it happen with all the games? It's weird, as it does need to show some drift in the calibration menu.

I would replace the stick if it's keep doing that and see if that fixes it. Return the old one for a refund if it is solved by a new one.

It does happen with other games, too. We initially noticed it with BOTW, then tried TOTK, and finally Mario Odyssey. It did with all three games, but like I said in my post, it doesn't always do it, and it goes away after about 30 seconds. Since it goes away on its own, and the controller works fine afterwards, it may be something we don't have to worry about, but I do worry that it may be a problem in the future.

Regardless, you think I should try to exchange it?

If it's working atm fine, I would leave it. If it's getting worse (like 60 seconds instead 30 seconds) I would replace it. For now just leave it and see how it goes.
