Our team used the US Digital MA2 and MA3 on the robot each of the past two years with excellent results. They are small, extremely accurate, reliable, durable, and have no "dead spot" like a stopless potentiometer. I would highly recommend these for applications where "continuous rotation" is needed.

That said, I have never used the MA2 or MA3 on a Driver Station, but they should work just fine!
