Re: De-Accelerating

Sorry about that, I did not finish typing my question because I didnt think we needed to.

The thing is that when the joystick goes to neutral, the bot suddenly stops and it kind of jerks. We're trying to get it come to a slow stop instead of jerking.

I'm currently using WPILib and using the Tank2 Drive function.

My idea was to create my own drive function and put in a deadzone of maybe 10%.
