How to display motor speed for PID Tuning
Hi guys. I'm trying to tune my PID system for my shooter and I want to use SmartDashboard to find the right values. However, in the PIDTestSystem, while I can change the values and see the result in the motor, I can't see the speed of the motor. I put the PID type as Rate, but it still won't show. Any ideas how I can view the speed of how fast the motor shaft is spinning? I can't seem to write it to smartdashboard either.
