Re: Joystick Compatibility with LabVIEW

Any joystick that windows can recognize as a joystick (which is almost all of them) will be able to run with the FRC driver station. As long as the proper drivers are installed on the classmate (or whatever computer you are using if this is out of competition), it should run (all of the handling is done DS-side, the robot just gets data from the DS)

And yes it is legal (any USB-based device is allowable by the rules)
