This is what we did in Java last year. There where generic commands like "SetFlywheel" that took parameters from the constructor and used them in the calls to the subsystem. These generic commands were implemented in CommandGroups that did specific tasks, like FarShot3 for full court 3pt.

Code is here if you'd like to take a look: https://github.com/FRCTeam225/2013Of...rc/org/team225
