I can successfully use the PSP stick on my n3dsxl and it works fine. When I put the PSP stick on my smaller n3ds, it will always drift after pushing in one direction. The c stick nub still works fine though. Has anyone else had this problem?
I'm using Insten PSP 1000 sticks and an ACHHD n3ds

I've had issues with it not registering certain directions properly on the N3DS XL, but reseating it a couple of times seems to have fixed that. Maybe take it off and try to reposition it slightly? Not sure if there is any sizing differences with just the N3DS
Forget the PSP Mod - I tried it as well and it wobbled and drifted too. I found that my c-stick mod from 9 months ago works best (from another Redditor):
