I mean, the right 'joystick' would control the right half of the robot(top right and bottom right wheels) and the left 'joystick' controlls the left half(top left and bottom left wheels). Thus by pushing BOTH of the controllers back and forth, the robot would go backwards and forwards respectively. To rotate, the driver would push the right joystick forward and the left joystick back in order to go in a counter clockwise fasion and the opposite for a clockwise motion. In order to strafe, the driver would lean the joystick's both in the same direction horizontally, thus both joysticks leaning left would cause the robot to strafe left and the oposite to strafe right.

See my p.o.v?
