1551's encoder-controlled arm

FIRST teams are made of people - students and mentors. In my humble opinion, it doesn't make one iota of difference if the name of the sponsoring organization or the name of the school changes over time. - dlavery [more]

[quote=Leav;1026498on an unrelated note: nice programming! what are you using for feedback?

The title says encoders.

We're using three accelerometers (one on each part of the arm and one on the chassis) to control ours. I'm still planning for the last minute switch to potentiometers though

Did you use the jaguars' built in PID with the encoders? I'm going to try doing that for our wrist action, and I'm looking for some tips.
