I’m using the BR2 system to drive a subsea crawler. Software is setup in simple ROV mode ie two lateral thrusters and single vertical (this is used for another function in my application). Question is can I in some way reverse the yaw function without reversing the forward backwards of the two thrusters? The vehicle drives backwards and forwards fine but the steering is reversed on the joystick…  
Any advice gratefully received… thanks.

Hi @nemorov,

You should be able to correct for this by changing which way you move your joystick during the yaw component of the [joystick calibration](https://www.ardusub.com/reference/ardusub/joystick-setup-page.html#calibration) procedure 🙂

Thanks.
