Don't forget the Logitech!

The real problem was just the person making it being too cheap/lazy to do any sort of safety certification on the submarine (and also picking the cooler sounding material over the one best suited to build a submarine). Don't blame it on logitech.

Using an off-the-shelf gamepad for the controls was part of that cheap/lazy design philosophy.

Of course a Logitech pad isn't a good idea to drive a submarine. It isn't meant to be one.

You could also think iy from other point of view. Even the cheapest logitech controllers are so excellent you could use them in a submarine! /s
