Re: Fork Lift controls
We have a forklift, though it has about 20 tines instead of two and they are vertical rather than horizontal.
I believe that our prototype control uses a horizontal joystick axis. Our final one will probably have a "manual" joystick control, but most of the lift and lower commands will be issued through buttons. We're coding a number of pre-defined positions into the lift.
The bottom line is, find something that the drivers can work with as early as possible, and practice, practice, practice! Don't tweak it unless it is requested by the drive team.
