Hi! I had this joystick for a year or so to play Elite Dangerous and a little Star Citizen.

The thing is that, for the past months and out of the blue, suddenly my ship would start turning left at a slow speed.
It's like if the Z axis had a very little dead zone and a small variation already is interpreted as a turn.
I've calibrated via windows and the issue even survived a system reinstall (meaning it's not software issue)
I have a friend with the same joystick and a similar issue but on another axis.
I'm convinced it's hardware issue and, before claiming RMA (I live in europe and have 2 year warranty) I'd like to try something, because RMA'ing could leave me joystick-less for a couple months.
Is there a solution or a way to repair it without losing the warranty?
