The Jag's LED should turn green for full forward and red for full reverse. If they're just staying at the blinking orange state, it means you have to set their identities.

I wasn't too involved with my teams electrical group this year, so I may be mistaken, but I don't remember seeing the LED ever turn green. I believe it was blinking orange when the robot was disabled or lacked communication, and was solid red while running forward or reverse.

idk... I just though it was normal

That's strange. Definitely check it out at your next competition. The LED's should (and do, on our robot) turn solid green for full forward.

Re: Tank Drive is backwards

A simpler thing to do instead of rewiring would just to implement the following:
m_robotdrivethinger->TankDrive(-leftstick->get(),-rightstick->get());
Just treat the function as a normal value.
