: If I recall, there is a calibration button on the motor controllers that allows you to set the middle and end travel of the joystick...that is, without changing your programming at all.
Yep...you can recalibrate the speed controllers to work with the output that the controller is giving them...next to the LED on each speed controller, there's an inset button that you have to use a nail, pen, etc. to press. Hold that button down, then move the joystick controlling that speed controller to its max and min positions, then let it go back to center and release the button on the speed controller. The LED should flash green if the calibration is successful.

I think Dave has been spending time on icanhascheezburger. Either that or the fumes from his rendering machines have affected the grammar control portion of his brain. - rsisk [more]
