Re: PID with encoder

Another thing you can do to work on this issue is to leverage the smartdashboard (I know you can't use it very much while in test mode) to display the distance/rate as you run the system manually (outside the PID loop) and see that things are changing as you expect (direction, magnitude, sensitivity).
