We have a driver who does the driving thing with just 2 joysticks that have the y axis controlling 1 side of the robot each.

Then i operate the arms and other dohickies on the robot from a seperate and much more complicated joystick and button box....

It would be alot harder to have one person trying to operate our arm and drive at the same time but michael (onizuka) and i have really good communication and can work really well together...
its all a matter of practice...

I have seen some teams that do it all with 1 person but with a bot with an arm or a complicated device other then the drive train i think it would be better with 2 people
