Hey guys, I have a Joytron Pro Fighter P stick and I've got this issue.
Sometimes when I input 2A 5B for example, my stick suddenly bounces up and inputs 8, so instead I do 2A jump. Even when I do 3A 5B to do a low A, it still bounces to input 8. It happens about 1 in 5 times. It's really difficult to do it on purpose as even if I flick my stick down vigorously (please keep in context), it doesn't actually happen.
However, I might have found a cause. I hold the stick between my middle and ring finger and my palm faces upwards. If I have my fingers curl in to hold the stick down, then release my fingers to let it go to neutral, I find that if my ring finger just barely touches the stick while uncurling, it occasionally causes my stick to input up, so I jump.^Doesn't seem to be true anymore, after further testing.
Any way to work around this? I'm new to stick and I've found myself quite comfortable with this grip except for this problem. Should I learn a new grip or is there a workaround this problem by changing my style of using this grip? Or perhaps is there any way to lower the sensitivity of my stick through software or modding?
Also, sorry if I put this in the wrong section because maybe it isn't tech related after all.
EDIT: Here's how the input display looks like when it happens. Here, I try to input 6AB to dash in, 3A to do a low A, then let go of my stick to neutral to input 5B. It only happens when I'm facing to the left. The 2A does manage to come out and hit, but then gets cancelled to a jump:
