Re: Pre match switch for autonomous

Your joysticks work just fine in disabled

we used this last year for lunacy we had the switch being the right wheel on the joystick
<30 = near starting
>30 and <70 = middle
>70 = far
So it sounds as though there is a time before autonomous mode begins where you can set the throttle on the joystick without it being zeroed out, am i correct?

Where is there more details on the beginning, "disabled" time, and autonomous mode in the FRC Rules? I searched quite a while and could only find rule <G02> which just states that: "The AUTONOMOUS PERIOD is the 15-second period at the start of the MATCH. DRIVER control of the ROBOT is not permitted at this time. During this period, the ROBOTS may react only to sensor inputs and commands programmed into the onboard control system."

Any more details? Thanks much!
