Wait whaaaaaaat? They seriously used wireless PC controller for thrust and control surfaces?

Oh my god. If that’s true that might be the most brain dead thing I’ve ever read today. Can you please give me a source, I have to know more about this now. :0

Edit: holy shit. I’m watching SomeOrdinaryGamers’ video.

I can’t speak to the sub, but many Navy ships were retrofitted with systems to be controlled by XBox 360 controllers. Turns out training new people on the controller had huge improvements over the old systems.

EOD also has robots controlled by a “game controller”. So do many drones.

This isn’t a “crazy” thing to do. (except if it’s wireless. Keep that cable)

You’re right if it would have been an xbox controller, it wouldn’t have been crazy.

It was actually a basically ancient Logitech Controller, which had connection problems even when you use it inside your home in front of your pc.
