Re: Poll: What do you use to control your bot?!?!
We have used the big Logitech joysticks from the kit some years, and an xbox 360 controller others (xbox slightly more commonly). What we use is largely a function of how the programmers and drivers would like it to work. (Trying to move the emphasis so that drivers are first on that.) Just Thursday, Chris converted T1GGR (2016 Stronghold robot) from xbox to joystick, because of flaky controller behavior at Red Stick Rumble. So far, just bench tests have been performed (it was raining Thursday, and our current practice area is outside, though under somewhat of a cover). I think he also switched from a tank style control (two joysticks' parallel axes) to arcade style control.
