Re: Crab / Swerve drive joystick control scheme

What we planned to do on a theoretical crab that we haven't built yet (we've only built one, and it was uncontrollable...) is have a single joystick with only the y axis enabled for throttle, and have a pot with a handle on an outstretched bar for pointing the wheels. The scoring mechanism would be on a turret, so translating as well as crab steering wouldn't really be necessary.
