If the stick is not at its optimal centre position (and your stick suffers the same issues as mine) then you will get drift. The position of the stick at that critical time will determine drift. You also need to note that the x-52 pro stick calibrates itself when it is powered on.
One of the issues is that, because of two (arguably three or more!! *) issues, the stick does not always fully centre, and has some wobble which is not contested by the springs, and has deadzone issues.
I actually found the quality low and had multiple issues with it.
