Austin,

Do you expect any differences between integrating on your co-processor and integrating with the accumulator in the FPGA, in particular with integral error and drift? What was the SPI bus clock speed/integral dt on your co-processor? Do you happen to know the SPI frequency on the roboRIO? (I think I saw 4MHz in a myRIO document...)

Thanks,
