The voltage compensation method is not exact. 12.5 is close. If you want, you can measure the actual battery voltage when you have a fresh battery and the shooter is running at the desired speed and the compressor is not running, and use that value instead of 12.5

If you need accurate control of shooter speed, I suggest you use speed feedback, as most teams who want accurate speed control are doing.
