I figured out last night that moving the magnet doesn’t decrease the jitters in the axis and also that the button press occurs when the magnet is directly over the sensor (max magnetic field strength detected by the sensor). One thing I do wonder is if a slightly stronger magnet would decrease the jitters and increase the range distance. As is, the axis does not use the full travel of the lever, so maybe a stronger magnet would be picked up further away from the sensor. I am no electrical engineer though so it is only speculation on my part. Further research required!
