    World you get into a plane that was controlled with one of those?

      The army uses Xbox controllers because the recruits are already familiar with them and don’t need training on a new and expensive custom controller. It’s more user friendly and reduces input errors.

      No, but not due to reliability.

      Rather because an Xbox controller is not designed to fly a real aircraft.

      I would however go on a boat that was controlled with an Xbox controller, less speed and one less direction to worry about.
