If your incoming members are strong, really strong, in C++ or Java, you might consider switching to that for your programming language. It's a lot easier to learn to program if you're only learning the logic of programming a robot and not trying to learn all the syntax and quirks of a new language as well. Then too, labview programming is rather different than C++ or Java. As an experience C++ programmer, it took me quite a while to really get my head around labview and how it works when I first encountered it.
