Re: Limit speed of 4 chassis CIM motors

We did a quick implementation of this approach a couple of weeks back. Limiting the rate that the joystick input can increase is an easy fix in code and does the job well. You can set different rate limits for each joystick axis (we have forward/back, strafing, and turning) to match the tipping geometry of the robot too.
