Re: Diver controllers

In the past few years, my team has been using the Logitech Attack 3 joysticks, finding them to be a pretty good choice of controller. For 2011, however, we made our own custom button board for the secondary driver, while still using the Logitech joystick for the base driver. And just recently, we have started to use an Xbox contoller for driving the actual robot. With our inititial testing it has proved to be very effective. The only buttons that we do not have on the controller shoulders are for our minibot. We figured that they would be less likely to be pressed during the middle of a match this way.
