I was wondering if anyone could post some pictures of what kind of buttons you use on your controls system, or give me a link to were i could get some buttons or switches.
Thanks from Team 3620

Sorry if this response is too late, but...

Inside (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/36381)
We used Arcade buttons from SparkFun.com (http://sparkfun.com) and a missile switch from Radioshack.
To interface these switches to the Driver Station, we used the Cypress IO board from the KOP, but you can try this (http://www.estoprobotics.com/estore/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=33)
In addition to those controls, we have two Logitech Attack 3 Joysticks(for the driver) and a Logitech Rumblepad 2(For the operator).
Als, if you search CD media for Operator interface, Driver Station, or similar, you can find tons of pictures of some really nice Operator Interface Boxes
