Post <G14> Question?
I was reading through the rule book today when an interesting rule caught my attention.

<G14> "Any control devices worn or held by the drivers must be disconnected from the operator console, and not connected until after the autonomous period."

We're using a 360 controller for this year's game, and if this rule means we have to plug in the controller after autonomous is finished, this spells trouble for us. Our robot won't recognize the controller unless the bot is rebooted after connecting it.

If this rule means something else, please explain. If i'm on the money with this, then does somebody know how to make it to where the robot doesn't need to be reset in order to recognize the controller?
