Also, be careful about what encoders you use. The standard andymark encoders are very... finicky. Make sure if you use them, you don't EVER have to disassemble the drive system. (don't take them off)

Just curious about the set distance per pulse function. Is this function the ratio between how far each pulse will take the robot?
For example if I were to calculate the circumference of the wheel (in inches). Then divide the circumference of the wheel by the number of pulses in a full revolution (which is 1440 I think if I am using x4 encoding). Then set the distance per pulse to the circumference/number of pulses in one revolution would it make one full revolution move the robot one inch?
Sorry if this is not clear enough I can try to clarify if it makes zero sense.
