Re: 1 Encoder, 2 Jaguars

tech, I completely understand. CAN this year is particularly buggy for some reason. We managed to get it working well enough to be used on our main drivetrain. I found that loop times are very crucial and can't be easily modified, but with a little tweaking, you can get some very good performance out of it!

For our autoaim and shooter, CAN is essential, so we're trying to work out as much as possible before our regional next week. I've got the parts in hand to build the circuit and will report back once I've done some testing. We'll primarily be using this for our shooter to distribute the motor load a bit more evenly, so even if the circuit stops working, our shooter should still remain functional.
