Disagree. The fact that he chose a cheap third party controller instead of sparing no expense and using something better tells me he probably cheaped out in other places too.
Apparently he did with the hull, using leftover material from NASA that was full of micro cracks.
As far as the controller, military uses Xbox controllers for quite a lot of stuff. I imagine those are hardened enough to not Stick Drift too unlike our shitty civilian ones. In fact just the fact that stick drift is a huge problem across the board with controllers made in the last decade I would definitely reconsider a gamepad solution unless it had some Hall Effect sticks at minimum. But I know this cuz I’m a gamer whereas to Mr. Billionaire, any controller is good just get the damn Great Value one off the shelf.
Also he used it wirelessly. Come on. I don’t wanna trust Bluetooth underwater.
Too many rookie mistakes just with the gamepad. When I saw that photo of him with it the day they went missing I knew they were dead as fuck.
