Changing individual Drive motors output
 
One of the motors in our drive system doesn't seem to rotate as fast as the others. I was wondering if there was any way to change the output of individual
motors through the code.

I've gone into the open drive motors vi, inside I saw that the pwm channels were separate, but I don't know if I can change these individually.

Any suggestions?

This is probably a calibration issue with the motor controller. Have you calibrated all of your motor controllers?

Do you mean the talons, or jaguars. If so I'm not entirely sure how to do that.

They are both motor controllers.

Which talons are you using?

There is a button on the Jaguar that you'll push with a pin. Hold that button down then apply full forward power to it using the joystick, then reverse full power, then let the joystick go. After all of that release the button you were holding.
