How did you wire so many pots into the 4 analog ports on the driver station?

We did not wire anything into the analog ports on the drivers station instead we found a joystick that had enough analog pot inputs and took the control board out of it so we used that to run everything into one USB port.

This is the joystick

It appears to fold up... Does it and if it does do you have pictures of that?

It does fold up, and lights up, and is easily the coolest driver station I saw all season. I was lucky enough to see it at Palmetto, and I was truly impressed. Great job guys!

edit: On second look, I think that is our robot in the back right corner.

RMS11 you are correct it does light up and fold up. We are currently working on getting some yellow cold cathodes for it. (Instead of the green ones)

Jeff, this is amazing and I love your box. Can't wait to make "our" box soon. 1323 would look so nice in those 801 spots.

Thanks Jeff,

Loving the CAD btw...

I'm guessing they had some bright (pink) inspiration
