Re: Correcting Mecanum Wheels with Encoders (Ether, We Summon You!)

Well I would try setting the feedback device earlier than the PID, and the PID earlier than the speed.
EDIT: Additionally, I would say that an IMU with a Kalman's filter would work better than encoders as encoders will not report as accurately on mecanum do to discrepancies in roller resistance.
