A comment on Submarine missing near Titanic used a $30 Logitech gamepad for steering. Parent comment
- they didn't do a test dive first with no humans on board
- they didn't do a test dive with just staff, no paying customers
- the first "test" was to the full depth where the craft would be basically unrecoverable
- they didn't seem to even test these things ashore... Because you'd find out if the damn motor was on backwards!
If true, this strikes me as beyond amateurish and outright insane.
