Pete

I have a problem I want to use the program wc132_bs_2demo

What I want to do use this program as a base and change Loop4: only

What I wanted it to do:
#1 Maintain a constant speed with both servos tracking a straight line
#2 Change course using differential steering while maintaining a constant 
speed

I am using the default parameters

I am having a difficult time understanding your logic behind the WC132

please Help Hank van Buuren
