Not really much of a control board, just 80-20 and plexiglass. For the Guitar Hero controller, instead of trying to interface with the Playstation2 plug, we just ran wires directly from the switches to the pinouts. We then used a USB Chicklet for the XBox 360 controller.
Our drive system (all wheel drive) was chain-driven off of two large CIMS with two IFI "sticky" wheels in the front and two omni wheels in the back, and operated with the Xbox controller. Our manipulator (sorry, no picture) was a cable-operated elevator that had two "fingers" that would slide under a tube, and two rubber wheels that would pull a tube in and rotate it upward to about a 30-degree angle.
The winch was a small CIM with a BaneBots gearhead and encoder....so we used 3 of "string" buttons on the guitar for high/medium/low positions, with the other 2 buttons used for manual adjustment. The load/unload function of our grabber was then controlled by the "strum" switches on the guitar.
