Do Channels Matter?
Today I built a holonomic drive train, as can be viewed here, www.vexrobotics.blogspot.com . As can be read from my description, i Programmed Channel Six to be like Channel 4, just the opposite. Why did the robot move much much faster when the button was pressed, as opposed to when the joystick was at full throtle.

Re: Do Channels Matter?
could you copy the code into here so I could see it?

Re: Do Channels Matter?
The buttons output full forward or full reverse when pressed (255 or 0). If this number is fed directly to the motors, it would be full speed, but pushing the joystick full forward should do the same thing. Try checking the trim on the joysticks to make sure they're not off right now.

Yeah I was the one who was there and found that out. We didn't look over the code yet, but I bet Bix did code it at full. I just pressed the back button accidentally and the thing began speeding along at full throttle, almost twice the speed that the bot was running at with joystick in full position.

Re: Do Channels Matter?
check the RX ports, we had a problem similar to this were the channels were set for "RX 3" which drives it, but not full strength.

Re: Do Channels Matter?
I set the RX port to 1, should it be on auto? And I did program it at full speed. I just used a four motor tank on the right, and a four motor arcade on the left joystick, but one was on channel three, the other on channel six. Did that make sense? Probably not. I programmed it at full speed.

Re: Do Channels Matter?
if post the code, all will be answered, I can't really figure anything out from without the code
