Re: Traction control: How do I tune a PID controller with variable gain?

I worked on tuning a PID control right before we shipped the robot. I didn't have time to tune it properly, so it's just a P (proportional) control. However, this produces very satisfying results, so try setting just the P gain and see what you get.

If you're using LabVIEW, it comes with a PID.vi, take a look at the help for how to use it. Good luck!
