A practical joystick controller enables the user to have full control of the Powerbase. An adjustable speed setting allows for setting the forward motion of the chair and a battery indicator shows the available charge.

An electrically operated actuator can be installed for controlling tilt-in-space. This is controlled through the joy stick, enabling the users to easily self-adjust the angle of their seat.
