4. Have you confirmed that you are using the correct AXIS and wiring it into your motor set speed or the tank drive VI?
5. Have you connected indicators to the wire going from your joystick setref to your set motor speed in your teleoperated VI to confirm that your joystick is actually sending teh set motor speed VI a non-zero value?
6. Have you checked the diagnostics tab and noted any errors you might be seeing?
Tis a sad thing but just writing in the tank drive VI won't do it. I had to start from scratch to get tank drive to work
