2009 TCS Systems With Follower Wheels
Hello,

I've been working on our TCS system, as I felt it wasn't up to our standards. I was wondering, for teams that used follower wheels, what was your math to determine slip? We take our drive train velocity - follower velocity, and if it's over a certain number, or under the negative reciprocal, we're slipping. I'm just trying to solve a puzzle that I've fought all year.

Thanks in advance!

-Nick
