Control system with one joystick(or two)

Last year we were rookies and used two joysticks to drive like a tank. One on each drill motor. I see there is a program on the innovation first website for one joystick control (http://www.innovationfirst.com/FIRST...umentation.htm) Has anyone used this program. Will our motors both go forward when i point forward. Will my moters go opposite directions when I point left or right. And finally do I upload the program just to the remote controller or do I have do anything also to the robot controller.

If I have four motors this year how can I put two on one joystick and two on the other (We are using two more periodically for high torque pushing and pulling).
