A piece of polycarb with the OI mounted and a handle is what is currently in the crate (along with a box of joysticks). The idea was to have a central hub with the OI and then allow each driver to relocate his or her sticks to the ideal location (w/ velcro on the sticks so they stick to the shelf) before every match. What we'll actually be doing is bringing an unmodified blue skimboard (we'll probably get some funny looks with that COTS item considering the time and location of our first event), cutting it in half at the event, and mounting the joysticks for each driver to one half of the board in whatever positioning that driver prefers. Those boards and the OI panel will get stuck to the shelf with velcro. We went this route because we hate really wide control panels (such a pain to carry around), and smaller panels get cramped really fast. Unfortunately, I don't have any pics because we made the "hub" the night of ship, and the skimboard has obviously not been added.
