Well, i'm one of my team's two programmers/drivers. i'm both, because since i programed it, i'm the only one tyhat knows the buttons.
anyways, my other programming friend put in some fancy thing to make the motors speed up slowly and slow down slowly. amazingly, it worked amazingly. i'm not sure how he did it, but it's pretty cool. especially when the motor's weren't hooked up to the drive train yet, instead of flipping out on a full forward to full back in one second thing, they slowed down, and then speed up the other way. it's cool
as for my toher part, the driver, i know more or less how we'll drive. i didn't get much time to proactice (maybe an hour?), but i was able to see how it will handle somewhat. hopefully we'll be nimble, yet powerful. i guess i'll find out in a week.
