I just coached two FLL teams using NXTs.

Are you tring to use the NXT buttons to control the couch?

Are the NXT motors just pushing switches to control the motors?
If yes, would the switches push the motors to neutral if you put the NXT motors in neutral, or will you need to drive them to neutral?
