Go to Post The game objectives are still the same, get boxes into your scoring zone, stack approximately half of them, run for the top of the ramp. So lets sit down, shut up, and start building robots. - ChrisH [more]

Re: Poll: What do you use to control your bot?!?!

703 has used both Joysticks and Logitech Gamepad controllers in the past. It varies by driver preference, though my personal opinion is that you get much finer control when using Joysticks.

Re: Poll: What do you use to control your bot?!?!

We primarily use the MadCatz F.L.Y. 5. Forward and backward drive the robot fowards and backwards. Twisting turns the robot. When we use mecanum wheels, left and right strafe. We also utilize the throttle to change the range of the joystick to limit the max speed.

We have also used Logitech gamepad controllers in the past with both split arcade and tank drive. It usually just comes down to driver preference.
