Xbox 360 Joystick Control

Is there a way to control my robot using my xbox 360 joystick. I have been using my wireless keyboard but that got alittle uncomfortable. If not what joystick is everyone else using?

Yes you can. You require an XBOX 360 Wireless receiver to plug into your PC. They can be found on E-Bay for about $8-$12.

Works great for me.

Also DJ recently posted a Wii controller tutorial. It uses your existing Bluetooth to operate.

Both are very simple to use and configure in ARC.

Thanks I have been trying to use the joystick application but DJ uses a different joystick so I didn't know if an xbox 360 joystick works.

I think DJ is using a Logitech Wireless controller type setup.

I had a 360 controller kicking about and used that.
