Re: Unique ways of controlling your robot (driving)

Team 1629 has always used a single joy stick to drive and an array of buttons and switch sto control the functions until this year. This year, while the buttons and switchs are still there, we used a steering wheel to drive. We figured "hey its a race right, race cars already work well, so we will drive it just like a race car." (If you havent checked out our drive train check it out at http://www.team1629.com Its pretty cool.)
