===Overall concept===

The two driver controls will be XBOX controls.

There will be 7 broken switches.

The top of the controls is in the shape of a heater shield. The entire top/shield is detached (no flip up sections); most likely held on with magnets. This allows the shield to be held by the coach/spy during the match. The marketing team will provide the graphic for the shield.

The base will have a strap so driver can carry the entire controls on their back.

=== Todo ===

  • strap holes on shield
  • strap holes on base
  • power: panel mount vs retracble
  • e-net location
  • USB hub location
  • cables extentions needed between controls and hub?
  • broken switch joystick board mounting location and holes
  • lights board: which one; location; mounting; power
  • are putting 'words' on side of base?
  • drawings for model shop (weld the corners)

Sample parts

Retractable cords (these could work if we have a 'door' and tie the female end down:
