Oscilloscope Reading #1
Oscilloscope Reading #2

The readings are from the PWM signals with the ports swapped running the very basic code below I wrote to confirm it wasn't a programming issue.

I see the difference in pulse widths which would make one side travel faster than the other. I'm betting this would be solved by recalibrating the controllers to the input values.
