Re: programming tank drive
There is actually a tank drive subVI already in LabView this year. If you go to the Function Pallette and go to WPI Robotics>Robot Drive, there is a Tank Drive subVI there. All you have to do is input the left and right axis, and then input the devref from an Open 2 Motors subVI (same pallette) instead of a from a single motor.

If you have any LabView questions, feel free to ask me.
