The victors are really supposed to turn green? I've never used them, but that sounds a little wonky.

Um, maybe run alongside it and read the voltmeter while it's moving maybe? Or long test wires for the voltmeter? I can think of several more ways, as I am sure you can, too.

If you are not calibrating in software, then a simple calibration procedure will allow you to make full use of your joysticks. The Victor is capable of "learning" the full forward, full reverse, and rest positions of the joysticks. Once calibrated the above indicators will always show at the full extreme of your joysticks.
I didn't know that about the leds
and how would i go about in calibrating the victors?
