Uneven motors

After testing our drive train, I seem to have an issue with undistributed motors, how would I go about setting a particular voltage to each motor in easyc? We tryed using the gyro, but unfortunately, this tended to be too sensitive.

Re: Uneven motors

I highly recommend using the on-line window and recalibrating your Victors. We have found them to be way off the 127 center value. After calibration they were within +/- 1.

Using the gyro you can increase the deadband or you can reduce the output by dividing by a number.

gyro = GetGyro (1);
gyro_out = gyro / 2;
