In your Begin.vi use the open 4 motors instead of open 2 motors. You will also need to open up another joystick. Then in your Teleop.vi instead of using ArcadeDrive.vi use TankDrive.vi and link it to your open 4 motors you initialized in Begin.vi. Then plug in the two joysticks and you should be good to go.

Remember to close everything in Finish.vi.


Make sure you make use of the examples they provide. Here is the TankDrive example:

As a general rule:
Opens go in Begin. Gets and Sets and Drives go in Teleop. Closes go in Finish.
