Using Victors with RobotDrive

[SuperBK]

The students put together a robot and used Victors because they were smaller and there were plenty of them lying around. I had them change the code from the SimpleRobot template to use victors but the victors didn't run. They just blink like there is no communication.

I found this in the programming guide:
By default the RobotDrive class assumes that Jaguar speed controllers are used. To use Victor speed controllers, create the Victor objects then call the RobotDrive constructor passing it pointers or references to the Victor objects rather than port numbers.

The code looks like this. Shouldn't this have worked? If code is OK, I am going to have them check the power to the digital sidecar. Note: the relay does work.
