2-Speed Programming
We've decided not to, but my team had tossed around the idea of 2-speed trannies on our bot. But, (apropo of nothing I guess...) what kind of programming would this take? Keep in mind, all you need to get the trannies to shift at the same time is a lock between individual shifters (like the throttles on a twin-engine boat), so that is no problem. But for the rest of it, if my team decided to do this next year, how hard would it be on the programmers?
