These files are little helpers that Brian developed to help you better understand the code and the idea behind our joystick control system (quadratic).

Quadratic Joystick Control.xls

These are the actual program files for last year's robot. feel free to download and view and edit to try different configurations with the robot!

In order to make them work in Parallax inc's editor, rename the .txt files to .bsx--Freeservers has some problem with bsx files. You can still edit the files in Notepad if you want (they are just basic text),

Our Program

Because these files are viewable in internet explorer or whatever you use, you may wish to right click on the links to download them. To get the acutal software editor for the programs (instead of usin Notepad) go to www.parallaxinc.com and download BASIC Stamp for Windows.

There will be more soon hopefully as it becomes available.... meanwhile, check out our links page to find some other useful information!
