Chicklet can give weird outputs if the calibration is off or if the battery goes low.
I had that problem once and have made sure the battery we use is fully charged whenever we use it.
Try using one of the joysticks as a test to see if the problem occurred in the code or just when the Chicklet and Xbox controller is being used. Since you are having the problem occur with default code and the Chicklet/Xbox, that's almost certainly the problem. Default is pretty solid. If the numbers are inverting in default code with that 250 to 4 flip, it's probably happening because the system is getting that information in to begin with.
Good luck
