John and Ray,

They should work now! I had to get a little (okay, a lof of... ) help from Phil Pilgrim!

As of this morning, you can use 12Blocks to program your Stingray. I have the mods (straight from the author, Hanno Sanders). The mods create a hardware profile that uses the H-Bridges built into the Stringray board. Still in alpha but should be ready to go by this weekend. Set Speed still needs work but everything else works great.

Current version supports custom hardware profiles. Hanno and I have created the profile for the stingray to use the built in H-Bridge support
