Re: Mecanum - use of gyro

Ether is correct.

The example is excellent, but is missing a WAIT function. The input to the PID function overrides automatic delta time calculation, but does not actually slow the loop down.

Note that you are not restrained to the 50hz loop rate. If you want your PID to respond more quickly, you can increase the loop rate. 50hz is simply the maximum rate you can receive new data from your joysticks.
