Just got an 8BitDo Ultimate 2C and I’ve been testing the sticks.
Using it on Windows 11

Out of the box:

• Left stick: ~14.1%
• Right stick: ~9.3%

After updating:

• Controller firmware: v1.06 → v1.09
• Dongle firmware: v1.00 → v1.03

The values changed to:

• Left stick: ~12.5%
• Right stick: ~8%

Then I tried the manual calibration method:
LB + RB + Minus + Plus for 8 seconds, rotate sticks, press triggers, then press the combo again to save.

After that, the circularity values became inconsistent:

• sometimes around 19%
• Then around 13%
• currently around 13.7% / 13.9%

Center values currently look like:

• Left: X 0.029 / Y -0.016
• Right: X 0.010 / Y 0.005

Does it revert to the factory setting again, and is the current percentage acceptable?
Like tbh this is my first "good" controller, the one I had before was let's say shitty.

It's still in the replacement window, so should I go ahead and do that, or is this okay, really confused.

Does it go back to the factory setting again and is the current percentage okay?
