Potentiometer arm control

Hello again. I've finally got pots mounted on my arm but I need a little help adapting them to my code. The arm has two pivot points, with a potentiometer mounted at each. The goal of my program is to make the motors move to keep the arm level until it's above the overpass at which point I'll press a button and have the ball get "flipped" over. I'm sort of stuck, and if someone could give me a hint on how to achieve this then that would be great.

Here's a picture of what's happening:
