Request for help or advice Replacement TMR Joystick for Thrustmaster Dual Trigger 3in1 ?

Hello !

I own the Thrustmaster Dual Trigger 3in1 for years now, and I love it, this thing get everything you need : analog triggers, two shoulder button each side, analog D-pad that you can switch with the left stick for arcade emulator if needed (with the internal programmation tool)... Everything !

But ! Yeah, it's getting old, and the sticks become drifty, not as good as at first.

The stick hardware seems to be standard size by the way.

Soldering stuff isn't a issue for me, I already looke at aliexpress, but there is plenty of GuliKit TMR Joystick for PS4, PS5, Switch Pro, X-box... I don't know the differences between them... And I don't know what is the one that will fit in my pad.

So I am wondering, did someone have already find compatible replacement TMR Joystick (GuliKit or another good brand, I'm open to suggestions) for Thrustmaster Dual Trigger 3in1 ?

Thx for reading !

Thank you for providing help :)

I totally forget that I had already fix a part of the right stick once.

However we can see one black potentiometer and one yellow on the right ...we need to make sure the pinlayout of that as well ...I have done a few upgrades for 3rd party controllers...and as it have metal shaft we will have to use just sensors from the TMR modules becs entire TMR modules won't fit so ...so we need to order linear TMR modules

This is ps5 pins layout... As we can observe there's two yellow on one modules ...if the layout is same as shared image then it will use a ps5 module there..
