You'll need to be a lot more descriptive of what you want to have happen.

Autonomous control is a mode of the robot. Where as a program tells it what to do (Drive forward until something happens, then turn, wait 2 seconds, turn again).. and so on without the joysticks being touched. You don't need parts to do this, unless you mean to test autonomous mode. In that case all you need is a small insulated wire or a pair of wires and a switch. Stick one end of the wire into pin 1 of the competition port, and the other end into pin 4. If you use a switch, do the same thing and flick the switch to allow a connection across the wires.
