We're using the 2.4 code on our robot, unmodified. joystick is plugged into port 1 on the OI.

What did we do wrong? did anyone else have this problem? I'd assume something is wrong with our X and Y values, but I searched and couldn't find anything about this.
help appreciated, thanks.
On the dashboard, the values for the joysticks are outputting to PWM ports 1,5,11 and 12...looking at the code we thought that it should be outputting to 13-16. That's puzzling us also.

From your description, is seems your PWM cables are reversed (ie, what you have connected to the victors controlling the right motors should be connected to the left motors and vice versa) AND your right motors are reverse wired (reverse the red and black leads at the output of the Victors connected to your right side motors. Don't forget to do this to both or your right motors, if using the kit gearbox!). That should solve your problem. If it doesn't, ask again.
