***ATTENTION!*** This video is severely outdated! Calibration Boards AND MuMetal Shielding are no longer necessary (thankfully!). Please check out my latest video for the most up-to-date and effective strategy for Hall Effects or TMRs on Elite Series 2's:

A video showing (some of) the lengthy process of installing Hall Effect Thumbsticks on the Elite Series 2, as well as various strategies to further improve preformance. I've had a few people ask about the "bent middle pin" method for calibration boards, so thats the method I used here. I did NOT connect the LT magnet compensation due to plans to install "Mouse-click" Triggers on this build.
If you'd like to attempt the Ginfull v.5 sensor swap, the most important thing is that they fit SNUG. If you file/sand even a fraction of a millimeter too much, the sensor wont be snug ENOUGH resulting in re-centering issues.
FYI - a sensor swap can also be done with Gulikit's TMR sensors! No filing/sanding would be necessary in that case, so likely the preferable option if you've got them around.
Whether you swap for Ginfulls or Gulikit TMR's, they must go onto adjustable tension HALL EFFECT modules, NOT an Alps Series 2 module.
