That is what I tried to say. Our team had all the VEX joysticks confiscated which I found very weird since the crystals can be replaced with legal frequencies (and there are a lot of legal hobby-RC frequencies). It might have just been a misunderstanding.
Also...the new wifi controls may not be an option depending on when the team wants to get started since it may be a while before the new controls are available.
