How did that happen? Mechanical or electrical overload? If it was hooked up to the analog breakout properly, electrical load probably would not have been an issue, but I also don't see how a mechanical failure would cause it to burn up without going wicked fast (its a technical term;) ).

Re: HELP Swerve Drive!!!!!

I'm using the example by team 358, and have figured out the min and max on our pot however the wheels arent doing what i want they are just spinning continuously. Would it have something to do with the gains

how do you use encoders with a PID example because I just found out that we cant use them on our bot

this statement is no longer valid as we have solved this problem
