Non-Arcade Drive causes problems in Autonomous...
I deployed the default FRC cRIO project correctly and noticed that both drive motors were now controlled by one joystick. When I switched to Autonomous mode, the default program ran as expected EXCEPT...only 1 motor changed directions - the other one ran in the same direction for the duration of the program. I tried switching the connectors, and the OTHER motor experienced the problem while the 1st one corrected itself. Could this be related to the speed controller, or is the autonomous program intended to switch the direction of only 1 motor?
Thanks in advance
