Go to Post Diversity means diversity in ideas too. Some of the robots from the singapore competition might have employed strategies or ideas that we may not even have come up with in North America. - J Flex 188 [more]

Re: Using the Microsoft Sidewinder Controller

On a slight side note: You can use standard game controllers. Here are the offical specs for DB15 game port:
Code:
Pin NonMIDI MIDI
 1  +5v     +5v
 2  A-1     A-1
 3  A-X     A-X
 4  Ground  Ground
 5  Ground  Ground
 6  A-Y     A-Y
 7  A-2     A-2
 8  +5v     +5v
 9  +5v     +5v
 10 B-1     B-1
 11 B-X     B-X
 12 Ground  MIDI Rx
 13 B-Y     B-Y
 14 B-2     B-2
 15 +5v     MIDI Tx
Just remember that pins 5, 8, 9, & 15 are special on the OI.
Does the Sidewinder use MIDI? Try setting it up as some other kind of controller.
