It's all about the same... we've experimented with several different control type configurations...
last year we settled on building out own...
The different types of joysticks don't really make a difference,
they all are about the same, just look cooler.
I am waiting for someone to get the microsoft "force feedback" one working...
that would be unbearably cool
i would bow to that person.
Advice to rookies: stick with the FIRST supplied sticks, if it's your first year in the competition,
you REALLY don't wanna be debugging a half working control system when you get to the
regional...

PS. anton, we are workin on a type of virtual reality...haha think of nintendo's power glove
