Because of the disussion going on in the Heads thread I have been wondering.
How do the mechwarriors control their mechs?
How do they control movement? How do they control weapons? How about jumping and landing?
As far as I know there is nothing in print for the game itself on this topic. I know the novels deal with this quite a bit, but they have to.
And we all know that "The novels have nothing to do with the game." Heard it repeatedly so I think we get the hint.
So how DOES it all work?

I don't think people have really bothered to try and explain it because they can't. If you did it would probably end up sounding really unrealistic.
