9. ROBOTIC ARM CONTROLS CLOSE CLAW OPEN CLAW DIAGRAM THAT TELLS YOU
These are the joysticks used to move the robotic arms. Just follow the diagram. NEVER move both joysticks at the same time, unless you move one forward and one backwards simultaneously. This will move the claw and arm either forward or backward. If you move the joysticks at the same time in any other fashion, the robotic arm will stick. Then you will have to give it a 6 second break to unstick before it will move again.
