So this robot is for speed and our 4 motor drive train is high strength 84t gears input to a 12t gears so a 1:7 gear ratio for every wheel and all the motors or red/torque motors. The thing is that our turning is reversed because their isn’t a idler gear or anything like that so how would I code it so that when I turn the joystick left or right, the motors spin the other way so that it turns properly and not reversed?
Switch the four motors cords (take one cord on the left and switch it with the right one next to it) and do this on all 4 motors. If the turning AND driving are inverted, then you can reverse your drivetrain in your code.

Rotate each of the wheels forward, one at a time. Each time note which direction the shaft in the motor turns. Adjust the toggle on whether the motor is reversed or not in the Vexcode configuration.
