Programming Crab Drive

As a off season team 1525 is working on crab drive. We have gotten working on the design but ran into a problem, how do we drive it. it is simple for when the wheels are all facing forward but how do you turn when your wheels are turned and how do you program that.
Additionaly we are thinking steering to be almost as if it was a FPS. one stick to control frontward and backwards motion as well as moving on an angle, and have the other stick for physically turning the face of the robot.
