But you still have not fully explaned how you plan on controlling the motor.
Do you turn it on and leave it on? How will you know when it has "let go"
When will you stop your motor?

Use the Get Alliance.VI and forget about flipping switches on a box.
Set the Alliance and field position on the driver station.
