Re: Weapon Accuracy?

you will need a sensor(preferably a pot) to monitor the position of the cannon and then you have to set it up to be basicly controlled like a servo but with smoother motion because you don't want to damage the mechanisms. Basicly lower the power to the motor as the error gets smaller

error = where you want to be - where you are
