Programming it was another story. We used another person's code that wasn't a part of FIRST and worked off of that. You can find code for how to do it on the vex platform, and base it off that.
To prototype though, do it on VEX with a holonomic drive using omni wheels in the offseason. Same code and it's definitely cheaper.
Good luck

I've heard/seen this is a good way to do it.
If i remember right, a team even used a turntable type input and were rather pleased with that.
