    No, you’re right… I think it was the winshield bubble that was rated for 1/3rd the depth? I know something was rated for a far shallower depth than what the dumbass CEO made the sub repeatedly go to.

      Also, these materials compress at different rates.

      An off the shelf controller wasn’t a terrible idea, but of course it was blue tooth and had pairing issues on previous trips

          No, but it supports wireless using 2.4ghz with an usb receiver. it does not support a wired connection at all.

            It may be 2.4ghz but it isn’t compatible with anything else anywhere and the range is terrible. Like as in if you are more than 2 feet from the receiver it will random spaz.

              even bluetooth has pairing issues to this day lol

              but i agree, bluetooth range and reliability has improved tremendously in the last years.

          It’s connection is proprietary and terrible with near zero range. It’s objectively worse than bluetooth
