This code also has optional field-oriented drive in it as well, and support for speed control via quadrature encoders ("traction control"). Team 2465 has found both of these to be helpful, and think they're useful for this year's game. This code is written to work w/black Jaguar motor controllers.

There are other examples posted on ChiefDelphi that you'll find, too.
The link did not work.
