NI Labview PID Encoder Feedback

My team has been trying to create a PID loop with encoder feedback to control our shooting arm this year. However, the motor output has been very erratic, fluctuating wildly. If we set the P, I and D values very low, (ie 0.001) it slows down, however, it is still not very accurate. Below is the VI we have been using for testing. Could someone provide a little guidance?
