Xbox Controllers

[techplex]

Consider strain refiling the USB cable. We had a similar issue where the driver would notice the controller being intermittent or disconnect altogether.

We used a wire tie and a sticky wire tie mount.


This makes sure that if the driver pulls on the cable the USB port does not wiggle or see the strain.

We had our laptop's power saver mode disabled.

Team 3310 said the Xbox controllers "burn out" a lot. (today our controller wont work at all now)

team 3310 also suggested to use a logitech game pad which we might try and see.

Team 1726 is experiencing a similar issue with our Logitech gamepads "disappearing" from the DS during the matches. I don't think it's the Xbox controller per se (unless it's defective of course).
