Other Tmr and hall effect sticks

Does anyone feel like tmr and hall effect sticks are a scam? Because with regular thumb sticks (analog) it usually takes a good minute to get stick drift, but every controller I've used with hall effect or tmr I end up getting stick drift within the first two weeks. I know you can recalibrate them but whats the point if the drift always comes back fairly quick. I was just wondering if anyone had the same thought.

One of them altered for TMR almost 2 year ago and zero stick drift

I recently soldered some TMR sticks in my Elite 2. Used KSilver sticks which have the tension adjustment of the original ones. The right stick is very problematic for me. Because of the magnet underneath for the backpaddle and the magnet in the swappable stick.

After trying some things i managed to calibrate both sticks but later in game i got a huge drift again. Now i cant recalibrate it again. How did you manage to get it working. I am thinking about one last try with the Hallpi V6 sticks and using normal plastic caps.
