Need help Programming and wiring camera!

Hi. I am the main programmer on our team and I know very little about programming. I need some help programming the camera.

On our robot we have a turntable motor to affect the yaw of the shooting mechanism and leadscrew motor to affect the pitch of the shooting mechanism. Basically what I want the camera to be able to do is the turntable motor and leadscrew motor to act as the two servos on the camera. I want it to be able to track the green light and then shoot whne the switch on the controller is activated.

Also I want to be able to flip a switch back a forth to be able to toggle between camera mode and a mode where another joystich on the controller can manually conrtol the shooting mechanism.

I am a horrible programmer and I have no idea how to use easyC. I have tried to use EasyC, but it just seems to make it a lot harder than just using mplab.

If anyone has anyi idea of how I can get this done and wire the camera please post. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
