Re: Feedback for Dashboard during Competition
Okay--I am starting to understand. Is this about right?

We are using a PID and encoders to control slipping. If I wanted to send the difference between the actual speed and the requested speed, would I take the number, convert it into a string, put in into a cluster, flatten the cluster into binary, and the put it into "Robot Status"?

Then on the dashboard I would take that, unflatten it, and then extract it from the cluster?
