NetworkTables would work just fine for sending the choice. Alternately your code could read the joystick axis in a periodic function, or in disabled, and then use the value from there in autonomous.

You hit the nail on the head. I just wasn't sure if I would be able to grab the latest value from the joystick, but it sounds like you can from the reponses. Thanks!
