Controller mesh not "moving" with controller #13

Hi. First of all thanks for the VRController. So far it's working great.

Having a big problem with the mesh attached to the controller object, as it is not travelling with the controller object. I am not a threejs expert so I might be missing something obvious :-/

I am attaching (your) mesh to my controller as per the example...

 controllerMesh.add(handleMesh);
 controller.add(controllerMesh);

I am attempting to shuttle my camera about using thumbsticks by adjusting the scene position...

 controller.addEventListener('thumbstick axes changed', (event) => {
      this.scene.position.sub(new Vector3(event.axes[0], 0, event.axes[1])); 
 })

For the most part this is working great. Unfortunately the controllerMesh stays put.
I have examined my controller position and it does not change (the scene does). The controller mesh is a child of the controller, so I don't know what I could be missing.
Thanks.

Edit....
I should add that I initially attempted to update the controller object position within the scene and could not seem to update it. After looking at your "space rocks" example it appeared to me that you were moving the "world" instead of the controller/camera.
