According to Bravi, the new controller will improve both reliability and functionality with smoother more sensitive drive control and in its own words “extremely simpler maintenance operations”.

The new controller includes a short throw joystick, replacing the old push button controls. The lower controls include a digital battery condition indicator similar to that used on modern cameras and mobile telephones.
