Re: Need help programming our swerve with feedback?

That would work, but only on a very basic level. If your motor value is too high you'll overshoot and oscillate, if it's too low, you will be really really slow, and any impediment (or heavier arm, do you carry the yellow balls around?) will stop it from working. For an arm like ours where we don't know what the torque on it is going to be, or whether its going to have a ball or not, a control system that can handle all the different situations by itself is much more important.
