Re: 2008 Omni Drive Code Help

thanks for that code. and yes we are using a chicklet to enable us to use an xbox 360 controller. does that make a difference?
and we tried using the default limit mixes, they cased the same problem, which is why i wrote my own up in that code. we suspected that somewhere there was a datatype conversion that messed us up, so we tried to eliminate all of them.

Re: 2008 Omni Drive Code Help

Chicklet can give weird outputs if the calibration is off or if the battery goes low.
I had that problem once and have made sure the battery we use is fully charged whenever we use it.
Try using one of the joysticks as a test to see if the problem occurred in the code or just when the Chicklet and Xbox controller is being used. Since you are having the problem occur with default code and the Chicklet/Xbox, that's almost certainly the problem. Default is pretty solid. If the numbers are inverting in default code with that 250 to 4 flip, it's probably happening because the system is getting that information in to begin with.
Good luck

Steve
