Will a joystick type controller be included with the CNC’s. If not what do you recommend?

As mentioned above you must change modes on the joystick. Press and hold the home button for a few seconds to change modes until you get the top two lights. [Joystick]

I WAS missing something obvious. The three pairs of batteries I tried were all apparently garbage. At least now I’m stocked up on AAs and I know what low battery looks like on the controller.

Hi, Ive seen you using the same controller I have to jog the Onefinity. I can’t get to move the Z axis. I was wondering if there is something Im missing.

has anyone figured out how to set the default mode for their controller to work with the Onefinity? I’m getting tired of holding the home button multiple times for 10 seconds to get it where it needs to be.

It’s over a year since this was first posted. I bought my joystick with my 1F and having the same problem. When I first setup the joystick the bottom two LEDs were lit and I could only control X and Y. Then after some searching on here I found out the mode has to be changed so the top two LEDs nee…
