Present drivetrain code

[argonbeam]

Is there any way to see, be it blocks, python, or C++, the base code for the drivetrain presets? Every season my team, along with many others, complain about low-speed, delicate movements. I actually decided to finally read the VEXcode library and then had my son’s team read some of it. They immediately decided to code their own drivetrain. But they did have a question about proportionate response to joystick movements, and is it built into the preset drivetrain options? I have no answer, and haven’t been able to find it online. Is the base code available for public viewing? It’s a great exercise for the more code-oriented team members to try and reverse-engineer it. But it would be great to have the preset code available to review.

Just create a dummy Python project, hookup the controller to the drivetrain, and look at the generated code. I would not use this directly (auto generated code is not pretty), but it gives you an idea of how simple it is.

Also this topic may be of interest, not checked if it still works recently though.

IQ (2nd generation) and EXP default drive code

A while back I wrote some code for the IQ 2nd generation that simulates the default drive code inside the brain. It’s not possible to completely simulate the code as some control and motor reversal is done through the control screen for that code, however, those same changes (arcade, tank drive etc.) can be made by modifying the examples. I have the same example in both C++ and Python, you will notice how similar they are. They are not fully debugged, but I though I would post the two VEXcode…

Thank you. Very helpful and will keep our kids busy for a while.
