Did I fuck this board up? Fixable?
Hello, I found a cheap elite series 2 controller in FB marketplace that had one of the sticks broken, I decided to buy it and fix it myself.
I am pretty novice to soldering, I got a cheap iron from Amazon and I have done little work on SMDs
I managed to desolder the whole joystick but I think two of the pins got broken inside the hole and I cannot take them out. Did I destroy the board? Is it fixable? Please help me
Edit: I already tried adding solder and using a solder sucker / wick, no success
