The thing about those joysticks was that the return springs were stronger than 2005 and 2006 KOP controllers. For 604 this was a problem because if it was ever bumped, or set on a non-level surface, then the joystick would make the robot move when you least expected it. The new joysticks are WAY to touchy.
