When I did reach into the code to switch which USB Port fed which side of the "Tank Drive" VI, the problem then switched to the other motor/jaguar. I fear that somewhere between "Open Joystick" (USB 2) and "Close Joystick" USB 2 some input is being lost. Can anyone help me with that? I really only have one more day to work on this thing and I'm fighting time.
The code pictures you posted are not clear enough for me to follow the connections. You can debug a running program by clicking wires and placing a "probe" to show the live value on that wire; maybe that will help you determine where the fault is.
