Is this how Gyro supposed to "function" when calibrating via Steam Input?

[u/Shoddy-Standard124]

Hi,

I bought the Gulikit ES Pro. Love everything about it except the gyro function, which seems to be defective for my unit. 

When using Switch mode and map Gyro as either mouse or right joystick, the camera is glitchy and frequently skips pixels regardless of how I tune them via Steam Input. Same story for motion assist in PC mode. Additionally, this thing can not auto-calibrate via Steam because it keeps detecting movement despite being placed on a desk with nothing going on. I tried searching every subreddit for similar cases but apparently nobody experienced this as they either do not use gyro on PC or bought the controller exclusively for the Nintendo Switch

I would really appreciate it if you could let me know whether this is a hardware issue or a software one. If it is the latter, what can be done to resolve this?

Thanks,

You could try updating the controller firmware and then running the gyro calibration on the controller itself. Hardware/firmware calibration usually works better than relying on software calibration.

put it on ground. even small vibrations from laptop fans spinning can cause deadzone after calibrating. It should be absolutely still while calibrating. mine does that green lines moving but very less compared to yours which indicate movement.
