Come on now...if they are "SO COOL" how come it's not a standard toolset? You guys are trying to keep it a secret aren't you? ;-)

It does look kewl after looking at some of the WPI documentation.

We have a PID now that is a "hummer" "hunter" at "zero" velocity. It's hard to stick the setpoint at 127 in the PID without making our own deadband rules for the PID control. We are going to try it and see if the drive function can make it better for us.

Thanks guys.
