Flamethrower Issues
« on: November 30, 2012, 07:51:56 PM »
Ok I've been trying to build a robot to showcase on my DSL Garage that supposed to have a flamethrower on it.  In the bot lab it lights up just fine but when I get to the testing area it doesn't (and yes it has a fuel and power source).  Could someone explain what is wrong or what I'm doing wrong?

Try wiring it to the same analog control as your drive.

Yep, that's what should happen. I usually only wire it to the forward control.
