To everybody that helped (Larry, Lucas, Bob, Sphero, Russell, Phil ... etc),

Thanks so much. I am now getting what I am expecting at the output of the op-amp but more importantly it finally "sunk in" on figuring out the gain, voltage and offset!

Thanks again guys, as always the list comes through.

as applying minus 1.218 via Ri to the inverting input and connecting V+ to
