Re: Drive Practice
What does pit practice entail? Is it just when you have to fix an issue, you handle it like you would at a competition?

Re: Two USB Cameras
The other camera does show up, but it is listed as two devices on the webdashboard, which could be the problem. We may just wait until we can get another LifeCam.

Re: Drive Practice
How many hours of practice do you usually shoot for? The actual amount depends on a lot of things, of course, but what's the goal?

Re: Camera not relaying to Smartdashboard
If you try to send other data to the SmartDashboard, can you see it? If not, I would make sure you have the correct team number in the dashboard.
Also, as BenBernard said, make sure you have the...

Re: Drivetrain PID tuning
We're able to get pretty good straight driving using only the P term with the navX, so that may be worth trying. As for carpet, a local store gave us a 5x12 foot square of the official carpet...

Yep, I got that. I guess I was just confused about it connecting to the localhost by default.

Re: pynetworktables2js
Shoot, sorry, I misunderstood how pynetworktables works. As of now, I think I know how to do it, but I'll probably have more questions once I actually try to get it working on the robot.

Re: Strange comms issues
I had the same issue on my laptop. In the team number field in the driver station, enter roboRIO-####-FRC.lan (where #### is your team number). That fixed it for me.

Re: Gyro vs. Encoders for Driving Straight
Thanks for the responses! Seems the general idea is that using encoders and gyro is best.
We did try to do camera vision (didn't end up finishing it though). That was just an example to say that we...

Gyro vs. Encoders for Driving Straight
At the moment, our algorithm for driving straight doesn't work too well. We just start at a set speed and increment the left and right speeds by a small amount based on encoder readings. We get about...
