I would love to see a velocity PID loop with:
Selectable Frequency (though a fixed rate would be fine if it is fast enough)
User tunable P, I, D gains
User tunable Feedforward gain
User tunable Forward/reverse stiction compensation
User tunable Maximum output cap
User tunable Maximum integrator output
VERY IMPORTANT: Slave mode so that a single sensor can be used to control a multi-motor, multi-Talon mechanism (like the drivetrain). It was never really clear how to do this with Jaguars.
I do not think I would ever run a position control loop on the speed controller, but I can envision making heavy use of velocity control.
