The same thing happened when AC and I got the general purpose controller thread going. There is really no such thing as a standard configuration. Everyone has different equipment and goals, and it is very difficult to get everyone on the same page. What we ended up with was half a dozen rigs, each tailored to different configurations. In general, we failed to make a generic rig that anyone can use on what have you, but I still consider the endeavor relatively successful. Many of us produced working systems during the thread.
Since then, I have been made aware of the fact that there are generic control systems available for cheap on the market. I have purchased a few of them, and they do an excellent job for the price. I believe one of them was around 50 dollars, and the other was even less. The brand I bought is Qunda. They also make universal remote controls (go figure).
