Re: Logitech Dual Action vs. Attack 3

Our team has had experience with both (and several other controllers as well). Using any sort of flight stick is going to provide more accurate control of a robot in most situations. Simply put, when you only have your thumbs and a small stick to move, getting fine movements out of it is very difficult. On the other hand, a big flight stick is a lot easier to get fine adjustments out of.

That being said, this year we're using both - two attack 3's and one dual action. The attack 3's are for driving, the dual action provides access to the other mechanisms.
