Xbone controller thumbstick "drifting?" repair?

     Ok I have two Xbone controllers that the thumb sticks will slowly move me in games when I'm not touching anything? they are both a year old and one has been opened. Any ideas on where I could send these off or something to get them repaired? They are not under warranty and I figure trying to go through Microsoft would be expensive. I no can soldering FYI. Thanks for any info.

Have you tried to update the controller firmware?

Yeah. I tried that I guess. Where you hook the controller to the xbone and update? It just says no updates. I did it like three months ago when I got a headset.

Live in USA? Vaut Vokuree, on my FL, may be able to help you. Send him a note on Live. He used to fix 360 controllers for the same problem.
