Re: fine control of robot with mecanum wheels

Can't say this will help, but we did encoder based closed-loop on our Rack'n'roll mecanum (8" AM mecanums off 12:1 direct drive banebots)... using interrupts on the IFI controller. It did help... at least once we got the PID coefficients tuned. Until then it was wild!

Hopefully it will be easier with the new hardware...
