Re: Velocity PID control and setpoint ramping
We toyed with an input ramp today, and found that the values we had been considering (roughly a half-second from 0 to max) were way too slow for effective driving.
We're going to move forward with the ramp disabled for now, and hope that switching the 14t gear to a steel version will prevent further catastrophic drive failure (we observed no major damage to the 60t gear meshing with the 40t gear upon taking apart the gearboxes yesterday, so we think we'll probably be OK).
Thanks for all the help!
