Additional debug documentation? #6

I successfully soldered and assembled a complete SASI, but the sensor readings ended up being completely out of whack. :(

For example, the joystick believes it's being pressed fully to the right when it's in the neutral position. Adjusting the trimpots to re-center it only moves it slightly over before it's unable to move it anymore.

The Y axis is extremely broken as well for some reason. Pressing up moves the output at a 45 degree angle north west. Pressing down moves the output straight east.

The X axis is wonky as well. Left moves the output north west and right moves it straight east. Left additionally continues moving independently east after physically holding it in the left-most position.

Adjusting the trimpots in general hasn't been able to fix these issues.

Is there additional debug documentation that could be used for a case like this? What are some good troubleshooting steps that could be followed? Does this just sound like bad soldering, or is this a common occurrence with a known solution?

All components were purchased according to the README specification, but perhaps the exact items you've successfully built versions with would be more helpful? It seems easier to pinpoint issues when there's at least guarantee that all components are identical to a working version.
