Go to Post I think that is important to note that winning teams have won without bending the rules. GP allows you to go ask, investigate and take pictures. Learn from others when you have the chance. - Al Skierkiewicz [more]

Why not?
Is that just a personal preference?

The only motors SPIKEs cannot be used on are the CIMs and Fisher-Price.

Re: Driver Station Dashboard & Encoders
I should've been more specific I'm not using them as drive motors I'm using the motors as arm motors. Also we use Victors over Jags as a recommendation by our mentor.

Can someone check my dashboard code as I'm 90% sure it is wrong and I cannot test it right now. Its a link to my dropbox so that you can download the zip file containing the 2011 FRC Dashboard Project. (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18793740/201...0Dashboard.zip)

I have 2 encoders (DIO 1-4) that display on 2 gauges and a numeric display
