Re: Autonomous Mode
Could someone please explain how to "switch" into autonomous mode without using a dongle. I want to test my autonomous code but haven't had time to make a dongle yet. Thanks

You really should use a dongle. They're easy to make, and you can't forget to change anything back before you go to a match. (I'd hate to be plugged into the field and the IFI guy coming up and saying, "You're team number isn't set.")

If everyone on your team is deathly afraid of soldering, you can buy a dongle from AndyMark.

It's pretty easy:

1. Make dongle.
2. Use dongle.

Seriously, you really, really, should have a dongle with a disable switch handy when you test autonomous mode. 1 trip to Radio Shack and a half hour with a soldering iron is all it takes.
