Re: Velocity PID control and setpoint ramping
Are you using TalonSRX's with their built in PID control? If so, I highly recommend following the procedure for tuning PID in the Talon user guide. We have been doing things in a way similar to you (mostly P) and had similar results. Then we got the great advice to try things "by the book". That means starting with 0's all around for PID and upping the F, feed forward, term until you get the speed you expect based on your input. Then use PID to tune that. Drive is much smoother now.
