Re: Programming Supershifter?

if you want automatic shifting, you should use the gearbox encoders that came with the supershifters to determine when the wheels are at their top speeds. this can be done with some simple testing & probing, or some math (probing would be my recommended course of action).
When you determine the gearboxes are at their max velocity, shift (are you shifting via servo or pneumatics?)
