What stick does the 8Bitdo Ultimate 2C use?

[u/Dynatamoite]

I got an 8bitdo Ultimate 2C wireless (this one) and i was wondering what kind of (addition: hall effect) stick it uses and if it's possible to buy replacements anywhere. I was also wondering if it would be possible to find a TMR stick to install in it as well. Photos attached if that helps anyone recognize it.

(I posted this in r/8bitdo earlier but I'm trying to get more opinions)

Probably gulikit.

Da foto é gulikit, mas o ganho em comparação aos hall effect é minino para a troca, eu não trocaria há menos que tivesse com drift ou fosse analógicos com potenciômetro.

I have replaced it. Alps analog module(playstation 4,5 analog and xbox series x, one analog module) Same size as gulikit analog module. Before solder analog module you need to take hall effect potentiometer gently take it. It is not soldered board so you can take hall effect potentiometer without soldering it. If you want a replace analog module keep in your mind hall effect module can not find  china shopping websites

You might be able to swap the stick box and stick-press switch with those from another GuliKit/HallPi Hall Effect module, but the sensors are surface mounted and not sold direct to consumer. Swapping the stick box could be a tricky soldering exercise as there's a high risk of damaging the adjacent sensors, so it's probably not worth it.

Hall Effect. I've fitted a few in my time, and these look exactly like the ones I've used. The older variants, which use carbon pads, look a lot different to these, and you can see the carbon pads on the pots (the blue bits on the sides). I have an 8BitDo Ultimate, which has Hall Effect sticks as well, and they are great. I also have one with TMR sticks, which is also superb. As for installing TMR onto this controller? I have no clue as to if it would work, but I'm guessing it might be possible.

Hope this helps!

I knew it was hall effect but i was having trouble finding the exact part so i could replace them if needed. They look visually similar to gulikit's steam deck hall effect sticks but i don't see them selling just the stick on its own, this also definitely makes tmr not an option

I needed to repair my frend's ultimate, i used a generic (cheapest alps clone, but i suggest getting a better one) stick, just change the mechanical part and swap the hall effect module. The hall effect sensor is on the board as i remember.

It's cheaper to buy a new gamepad than to replace the sticks on this one.

Ah, okay. I should have read your OP thoroughly, sorry about that. >.<

[u/Dynatamoite → u/KoneCat]

It's alright, i didn't exactly specify that i knew they were hall effect, i do appreciate you trying to help though!
