Re: Help the field crew, reset your gyro in autonomous

It would be fantastic if the fms had an initialization mode that runs for 15 seconds before autonomous starts.

This way the gyro and all the other sensors and need standstill calibration can be calibrated in that period.

So the robot can be turned on and any point. when the robots are all ready and aligned, They "start" the match by triggering the init sequence using the fms, countdown 15 seconds and then the match start.


Any comments on this approach for next year?
obviously it cannot be implemented this year.

I think putting your code in the disabled loop could possibly work to have this effect?
