Have you tried using the WPI library provided PIDcontroller class?

Re: PID help

We have developed a PID control library. One module allows you to do PID control on a motor with encoder. The most useful function is:

Code:

void SetHeight(float height, Event *setHeightEvent = NULL);

We used it in the Logomotion game where it controls our ladder to raised to a certain height. For example:

Code:

SetHeight(96.0); //raise the ladder to 8 ft high

You can access our code at:

The ladder code is in Logomotion/Ladder.h. The PID control motor library module is in trclib/TrcPIDMotor.h
