I have a Pro and Std model X52, the latter has the magnet mod and performs far better than my unmodded X52Pro. Definitely well worth carrying out the mod on either of these sticks.

I carried out the mod in a different way than described in most articles so that the position of the hall centre could be easily adjusted for precise centering after the magnets were re-located - calibration is then carried out with the stick fully re-assembled (minus the base cover of course).

i have both, modded the standard version as a practice run, liked the effect but still found the spring too sloppy. so the pro got the same treatment. well worth it and a piece of cake to do. don't forget to use blutack rather than glue though, you'll have to jiggle them things around to get them centred!

yep, used a sort of bi-adesive, but no centering problem, it self centered when unplugged and then plugged again, is perfectly centered. The only problem i had with one axe (X) was the limit, it didn't reached the most right limit. After i reduced the distance sensor-magnet it was perfect. Also tried joytester, and i could finally draw a perfect circle, like Giotto , before it was like a rotated rectangle, most like a diamond... who tried it know what i'm talking about
