Flipping the X - axis

By the way, it's only the Y axis that needs to be inverted. The originally posted code is already getting the effect of inverting both axes by running all the motors in the other direction.

Try this: (warning -- untested)

if(Driver->GetRawButton(6)) // reversed direction of robot
{
    directionInverted = true;
}
if(Driver->GetRawButton(7)) // normal configuration
{
    directionInverted = false;
}
if(directionInverted)
{
    MyBase->ArcadeDrive(-Driver->GetY(),Driver->GetX(),false);
}
else
{
    MyBase->ArcadeDrive(Driver);
}

You'll have to declare directionInverted as a static boolean variable, with an initial value of false.

This worked!!! Thanks!!!
