I know this is a pain, but this is how we did it. I have our drawing so I can't tell you which is which, but doing this process only takes 15 minutes or so. good luck.
Actually, if you just follow what I said, you'll save yourselves 14.5 minutes. Although, yours does have the pro of having a actual picture of the controller, though generally it's fine to just have real-time values coming back as you push buttons.

Somebody could probably make a VI that does this. Would be nice if you could tell what type of joystick you were calling upon so you could make the VI work for any controller that is plugged in. Though how would that capability help the robot? It wouldn't unless your robot has a strange passion for XBox 360 controllers and won't work otherwise.
