Well, once you get into it... we have an autonomous example on our site with a walk-through (
www.combbat.com) and I'm going to be adding beginner programming tutorials over the summer, so watch out for that. You might also want to look around for any lectures that may be going on at remote kickoffs in January, that might help you out too. Personally, I learned a lot from the Parallax user guide, it is a great thing for troubleshooting (but is huge) if I find anything better to help you learn, I will post... but you might also want to check the white papers.
