Re: Robot locking up using tank drive.

Alright so we have found what is causing the robot to lock up. We are using 2 victor motor controllers to control the drive motors. However, in beginVI if we open the drive motors as victors the robot locks up. But if we open them as jaguars, it doesn't lock up. However, when we open up the controllers as jaguars and press button 1 on the joystick. It makes one of the drive motors go forward and one goes backwards while moving the relay in reverse. If we press button 2 on the joystick, it makes the drive motors act the same way except it moves the relay forward Any help would be appreciated.
