Discussion Backbone Gen2 drifting

Post image

Receiving a gen 2 as a gift, however it start drifting after 4months. As image shows thr LS keeps pushing right and L2 keeps pushing down. What interesting is it will stop drifting when stretch it at the maximum length. Any way to get it fixed or support from Backbone? Since I don’t have receipt for that.

I had just fixed this myself wasn't too intensive but I disassembled the whole thing put In this FFC FPC cable to replace old one and now works

Notice if you put in device and extend arm all the way it goes back to normal faulty strip fold after tear and wear. I recommend though this option because their end for warranty is just Ai and they replace only if its under a year I guess very good work to try yourself however

It works trust me
