: I'm not sure that I understand your question. What is the problem?

I think what they're trying to do here is use the programming to check whether or not the joysticks are in a dead position (i.e. the 'bot's not moving), and than use that information to allow or disallow shifting gears on the drill motors. This would prevent someone from shifting gears while the drills were spinning, and really messing things up.

I got that much, but I don't know anything about programming, so I can't help much more than that.

Hope this helps,
Michael
