I assume this is for your drivetrain?

It's better to try to find the source of the problem, if you can, and fix it.

What symptoms are you observing that leads to your conclusion that the motors are not running at the same speed?

Have you calibrated all of the motor controllers in situ?

What kind of drivetrain? (e.g. 4 wheel skidsteer, 6 wheel drop center, mecanum/omni, chains/belts/straight-off-the-gearbox-output-shaft, etc).

What kind of operator interface? (e.g. Arcade, Tank, etc)?

Have you noticed that some of the motors are getting noticeably hotter than others?

What are the DS diagnostics telling you about your joystick values and your PWM commands?
