Yes you can use a diffrent controler, remember the team that use the custom made glove controls that had pots on the wrist of the driver? My team is actually working on figuring out the pin outs for a playstation controler so we can use that and have all the extra room to move around with the big cord. You need to figure out the pin outs so you can cut off the regular playstation plug in, and splice a standard Db-15 in to the wiring.
