Re: need a simple motor program

Is the Victor status light going red when you push the joystick all the way forward-an indication of full speed?

You can certainly multiply the joystick output, but the range of the motor speed is only -1 to 1, the same as the joystick. A larger number would get cut back to 1. And calibrating the victor to the joystick range should have made it full speed no matter what.

Not a low battery, bad wire connection, or anything simple like that is it?
