Hooked up the chicklet to a shark xbox 360 controller - no joy in that it doesn't recognize it. Plugged in a microsoft xbox 360 and things were fine. The controls are touchy and the older 360 controller often didn't return to exactly neutral when released. Possibly a new one will have less issues. Our OI programmer is looking at doing some averaging/filtering to removes some of the glitches but other than that it seem to work ok. There certainly aren't as many steps in the output as there are with the larger joysticks. Didn't capture the data but I'll see if the OI programmer will do that and post the results. Seems to me that there were maybe 14-16 steps from neutral to full on which is at least a factor of 4x less than the full size joystick we used last year. Then again the driver probably used the first few steps for slow movement and then full on so its not like they actually USE all 64-80 steps available.
