Re: Mecanum Trouble

Hey guys, sorry its been a while, but we still dont have a solution. We did find out our Talons were not ID'd correctly and we have fixed that. So here's the situation.
We changed the Holonomic.vi so that the values were correct. After a few more tests, we swapped the X and Y-axis wires that lead into the Holonomic.vi in teleop. We ended up having something similar to arcade drive, but with the Z-axis of the controller being used for strafing, and the strafing malfunctioning so that the wheels in front both ran forward, and the back ones ran back, rather than strafing right, and the front ran backwards, and the back forwards, rather than strafing left.

Re: Mecanum Trouble

Very strange happenings!

So, needless to say, your guys' fixes worked. The reason it didn't help us at first is because we had a Talon IDing issue on our Mobile Test Bed. Then, when we decided to code the drive on our smaller test bed, something very strange happened. Every time we issued a forward signal to the roboRIO, the motors on our test bed ran backwards. After losing a lot of sleep and a lot of troubleshooting, we found out that the smaller motors on our test bed (the bag motors) run reverse of the Mini Cims, which made testing very confusing. Very strange!
