track channel mixing [TANKS]

["Doug Conn" <dwconn404-at-comcast.net>]

When I build my tank, I'll need to write some code to handle the mixing of a
single stick input into two separate channels for the speed controls. I'd
like to be consistent with other vehicles out there. I bet the writers of
the C6C firmware have already solved this problem, and I bet others have,
too. Care to share your algorithms ? How do you convert a stick's X and Y
positions into two track's direction and speed ?

 

               Thanks,

               Doug
