u/prophet-of-solitude

So I am using manual pump, soldering iron and I also have wick.

Im trying to desolder. I pretty much got most of it but these joystick frame has 4 legs that are big and even after applying lead solder and sucking using manual pump. It still has some left. I am trying past 30 mins. I am afraid I will burn something else now.

Any tips?

Edit: Thanks everyone for your suggestions! With your help, I was able to cut the joystick frame and apply extra solder. I then heated it up and pried it from the other side, and it worked. Now I have TMR joysticks on my controller.
