I've been able to have it not register until the joystick is fully forward, by moving is slowly.

We (1519) were having this problem starting a couple weeks ago when we upgraded our Driver Station (the Classmate) to the new 2011 release running Windows 7. (We had not been having the problem with Windows XP on the classmate.)
This week, we switched to using a different laptop (a Dell Latitude D610) and the lag problem has gone away completely. We believe our problem was due to the Classmate, rather than the robot!

FIRST is the best thing I could have ever done. It shows me where I think my limits are, and it destroys them right in front of my eyes. My experiences with FIRST have defined who I am, and I am beyond blessed to have had them. - Audrey Chu [more]
