I'm not quite sure what you mean by "simple motor implementation." A shooter wheel control? In that case, you'll want to look either into a PID control or a Bang-Bang control (
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/2663). An example of turning toward the target? If you don't have a turret, you can use a PIDCommand or something similar with the output set to something like drive.tankdrive(output,-output) and the input set to something like gyro.getAngle() (assuming drive is a RobotDrive and gyro is a Gyro). Tilting gets a little more complicated because you probably need to use an accelerometer, which only measures angle indirectly.
