PID wouldn't help much, from what I can tell. What you do is - when your arm or whatever thing is in the down position, set the encoder to 0, then when you press the button, have it move forward till the encoder click you want and tell it to stop.
I think that's how it works. I'm a hardware guy, so don't take my word for it. Email one of our coders at info@say-watt.org.

That's not how PID functions. PID keeps you where you want to be. I've already been using PID on my FRC robot but that was LabVIEW. PID is what I want I just dont know how to write it in RobotC. I've already done it the way you are suggesting and it doesn't function the way I want.
