2016:Controls

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 ===
