Mecanum programming (java if it maters)
We are testing mecanum drive train in our preseason. Our wheels make an X when viewed from the top. We are using an xbox controller with one stick controling forward reverse (axis 0, axis 1 respectively) and axis 4 for rotation. Our forward/reverse and strife side to side work flawlessly. Our rotation does not. Seems the command is sent to the wheels 90 deg out of order. The motor spin is like strife only exactly wrong. Does this make sense? Do you have any insight?
Update :
We figured it out. We had the wrong two motors inverted. During rotation running the two rear motors where inverted. Turns out the left two motors required inverting.

The most important things for a team to take to any competition are a sense of humor, a big bottle of Advil, and a camera!
