Re: Iterative Robot Template

teleopPeriodic is called about every 50ms. This time period is based upon the data rate of new packets coming from the driver station. New joystick information is received about every 50ms, so there is no reason to update the robot drive more frequently, since the data would be exactly the same as the previous data.

So put your call to tank drive in teleoPeriodic.

Code:
    public void teleopPeriodic()
    {
        // feed your watchdog
        Watchdog.getInstance().feed();
        // drive the robot
        this.robotDrive.tankDrive(leftJoystick, rightJoystick);
    }
