Controls for a first year swerve team

Continuing the discussion from U Shaped Chassis?:

My team is upgrading to swerve this year and as Driver 1 i was wounder how people like controlling their robots the best. I am talking with my driver coach and cant decide if a 6 axis joystick, 2 4 acis joysticks, or a controller would be best. I personally have alot of experience with drones so im use to and kinda leaning towords a controller because the controll are very similar. But when it comes to robot we used 2 4 axis joysticks and that where most of my experience with driving robots is on. Ive never tryed 6 axis and ive heard good and bad. Just wounder what more experienced teams would or have been doing. Anything helps thanks.

I would go with whatever u, the drivers, are most familiar with. Using something new can be good but it’s hard to beat the muscle memory of something u have a lot of experience with.
