I just have a quick question about the programming the other teams use. Does changing the input from the joystic to make it a smooth curve rather than a jagged one reduce stress on the motors and prevent spinning your wheels? If so what method would you use, an incrementation that goes from the current levels of the motors to the joystic level, or do you divide the difference by a constant until that difference reaches zero.
I must admit I do not know the full extent of the capabilities of the code used, I was just wondering and would like any input people who understand the code better than myself (read: everybody) think.
