Igor,

just implement a DeadZone about the center of your joysticks in software. We have done this for years. We simply implement a count of ~20 on either side of 127 as our deadzone (your limits will vary with your drivetrain).
Aside from that, we have our players trim the joysticks before each match by adjusting the trims forward (until we see movement) and then backwards (until we see movement in teh other direction). Then move teh trim as close to the center of these two positions as possible. Works every time!

Rick
