How do I fix my stick drift?

I’ve had my Meta Quest 3s since December 31st. Its August 21st as of this being posted, It’s been about a week and i’ve had really bad stick drift issues, especially on my right controller. i’ve tried to recalibrate and clean my controllers, like the official guide says, but i’m still met with issues. What can I do without completely replacing my controllers? help!

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

What kind of alcohol did you use when cleaning them? If it's not 90% you won't get the result you want. Can you give me more details about the issue?

In terms of the alcohol i probably didn’t use 90%. unfortunately i don’t remember. i mean, the drift isn’t constant, however, i’m finding that after about a half ish hour of using my headset with the controllers, the drift persists after that. I stopped using it for about two months, came back to it yesterday, and nothings fixed it. i cleaned it again thoroughly changing the batteries and AGAIN, recalibrating the controllers. i guess i’m kind of stuck now. I’ll see if the 90% helps though! thanks!

Thanks guys! Update: My stick drift has gotten.. worse. 😭. My friends are telling me I can use compressed air to clean them or, ultimately, replace them. But that is NOT happening anytime soon. Trial and error, I'll see what the video can do to help me.
