Re: FTC: Using the Hitechnic SuperPro Prototype Board

In all my years of coaching ftc, the tetrix encoders could give accurate readings in some matches and completely wring the next match.

I've observed and heard this from over 20 other teams in addition to my 5 or 6 teams.

We mount encoders per the instructions using white cloth gloves and everything.

The program produces clean build and will run correctly up until the randomness ten or more attempts later.

Regardless I think were going to use the prototype boards for limit switches, leds etc.

Anyone have any tips or ideas for encoders?
