Re: PID Loop Controller with a Servo

A typical (non-continuous) servo already implements closed-loop control onboard, so a PID loop is unnecessary. Just set it to the angle you want and it will handle going there. Servos are quite effective at moving to positions quickly and without overshoot.

You can set a servo in wpilib using Servo.setAngle(degrees)
