DRIVER STATION DESIGNS

[carrillo694]

Here's a major component of our OI. The drivetrain was controlled with joysticks, and stingers/shooter/etc controlled with this. I personally like making our own box, because it allows us to make more ergonomic design configurations than joysticks allow.

The buttons on the right set the speed of our shooter. The big red button on the left runs our automatic shooting routine, the covered switch above that deploys our stingers, and the toggle lever in the middle controls our acquirer. There's also a thumbwheel switch on this box that allows us to select what autonomous routine we want to run.

If anything, this can get a little too bulky to carry, but I had so much fun working on its design that it didn't bother me as much as it bothers others, and as the driver I carried it around the most
