    I saw on a YouTube video something that blew my mind. A captain had somehow installed buttons for his cannons on his controller. The speed at which he could send BBs down range was impressive.

    I can visualize how to make the upgrade on my controller by the wiring is a bit overwhelming. Any help or ideas would be nice.
