Re: non-'FRC legal' control systems?
I haven't worked much with Arduino stuff, but I've got a punch of PIC stuff I play around with. I've got a basic understanding of C (still can't wrap my head around pointers) and I've gotten little robots driving around under the control of two 100K Ohm linear pots. Joystick would be the same thing, if you used a Gameport Joystick (not to mention, Goodwill/Salvation Army has them for like $2). So, it's very doable.
