GuliKit TMR Electromagnetic Joysticks for DualSense/DualSense Edge Launch on Rakuten, Eliminating Stick Drift

Eliminating Stick Drift: TMR Electromagnetic Technology Beyond Hall Effect

“Stick drift,” where controller sticks move without user input, is primarily caused by the wear of internal components in traditional physical contact-based joysticks. While magnetic “Hall effect” technology emerged as a solution, GuliKit has advanced further by adopting TMR (Tunnel Magnetoresistance) electromagnetic sensors.

TMR technology offers two significant advantages. Firstly, its non-contact design fundamentally prevents wear, leading to theoretically zero drift and superior durability. Secondly, it provides enhanced input precision. While Hall effect technology improved “stability,” TMR technology delivers a sensation of “stopping exactly where intended.” It accurately reads minute inputs, reducing aiming discrepancies. Furthermore, TMR combines ultra-low power consumption with excellent temperature stability, maintaining performance even during prolonged, high-load use.

Three Major Strengths of GuliKit ‘TMR Electromagnetic Joysticks’

The GuliKit TMR Electromagnetic Joysticks offer distinct advantages for gamers:

  • Drift-Free Durability: The non-contact TMR sensor prevents wear-related degradation, theoretically eliminating stick drift. This removes concerns about frequent replacements.

  • “Stops Where You Want It To” Input Precision: Going beyond Hall effect technology, TMR accurately reads subtle inputs. This reduces aiming discrepancies, providing an immediate difference in control.

  • Customization for Personalized Control: The higher-end model features an Adjustable Tension function, allowing users to fine-tune stick resistance. It is designed for plug-and-play use, with PC calibration available for precise adjustments.

Product Lineup: Two Models for Tailored Control

Two models are available to suit different preferences:

1. GuliKit Joystick TMR Electromagnetic (Standard Model)

This model offers outstanding durability and smooth operation while maintaining the feel of the original stick. It is ideal for those who want to eliminate drift concerns without changing their familiar control experience.

  • TMR Electromagnetic Sensor: Eliminates physical contact to prevent drift.

  • Magnetic Interference Prevention Structure: Unique design blocks interference from magnetic triggers like L2/R2.

  • Premium KK Ring Caps x2 Included: Significantly reduces friction for smooth, fatigue-free operation.

  • Recommended for: Users who desire original stick feel with maximum durability.

2. GuliKit Stick TMR Electromagnetic (Adjustable Tension Model)

This high-end module is designed for core gamers who demand extreme precision and personalized control.

  • 720° Stepless Tension Adjustment: A dedicated tool allows for infinite adjustment of stick stiffness and feel (with a hidden design to prevent accidental adjustments).

  • 3-Stage Height Adjustment: Includes six caps (low, medium, high) to adjust the stick height according to hand size or FPS aiming precision.

  • Full Module Replacement Specification: Ensures stable centering and prevents damage.

  • Recommended for: FPS and action game players seeking millimeter-level aiming and custom tension.

Rakuten Store Opening & New Product Launch Sale Overview

To celebrate its official availability on Rakuten, a limited-time sale will be held for gamers in Japan.

Product Specifications and Important Notes Before Purchase

These products are DIY parts designed to upgrade controllers to professional specifications. They are compatible with DualSense / DualSense Edge controllers (controller body sold separately).

A repair tool kit is not included with these products. The replacement process requires advanced soldering and desoldering skills. Customers who are not confident in these skills are advised to consult a repair specialist. Since joystick components vary in size between controllers, it is recommended to replace the entire module rather than individual stick parts, as partial replacement can lead to damage or centering issues. After installation, it is essential to calibrate the joystick using the “Test Tool” page on the GuliKit official website before use.
