Re: Drill Motor Adjustments -Rev vs Forward

I just noticed a couple things

the transmissions that FIRST gave us last year - the motors spin in the same direction if you have one on each side of you bot, so the FWD > REV problem doenst exists if you use them (we have them on a practice bot we build over the last few weeks)

the other thing - make sure you have calibrated your speed controls - you have to push and hold the little button with a bent paperclip, then move the jopystick full FWD, full REV then back to center, then let the button go - do both sides.
