However, the Holonomic drive vi doesn't want Joystick axis inputs. It wants a magnitude (0 to 1), a direction in degrees (0 to 360), and a turn rate (-1 to 1). You can do the Cartesian to polar conversion math yourself, or you can use the "Re/Im to r/theta" complex number vi to turn X and Y axis numbers into a magnitude and direction in radians, then scale the direction appropriately.
Top part- I understand X axis is 1(x) & opposite with 2 but which joysticks are those or is it the d pad (a logitech dual action has 6 axes (dpad(2)+left joy.(2)+right joy.(2)=6))

Bottom Part- I already have that long conversion in a sub vi that works
