Re: Encoder: Can't Find Consistent Values for One Rotation
Is it possible to turn the shaft by hand and read the ticks output for one revolution. That is how we do it with the encoders provided with the FRC kit. Then based on wheel size you can figure out the distance per 1 revolution. The formula is floating around CD.
