We are very new to LabVIEW. Right now we are trying to get some knowledge on that with a basic Tri-Bot. Currently it is only one controller right now. Sorry if it is something really basic that I am missing with this.

See the TankDrive software example that comes with the FRC2011 LabVIEW installation.

Click on "Axis2" and change it to "Axis1" to access the X axis.

Then use Axis1 (X) to control rotation and Axis2 (Y) to control speed.
