Re: 2010 Milwaukee Wisconsin Regional

@ Sam, your in luck as our team also has a Mecanum drive base and has successfully got it to work. We also have integrated pneumatics this year so we have experience with that. Our current joystick set up is similar to tank drive because that is what our drivers would be most accustomed to.

Both Y - Forward/Backward
Both X- Slide
Inverse Y- Spin either way

We are looking forward to helping you out. (If you would like to email your code to us and we could take a look at it before Thursday just send me a PM)

As far as your pneumatics is concerned, could you explain what each of your solenoids are doing, it would help to understand what needs to be accomplished. I would recommend that you use a timing system for the kicker as while your adrenaline is pumping, you may forget to retract the kicker-- resulting in a penalty and yellow card. (Assuming I am understanding the purpose correctly)
