Go to Post I still believe that if we are legitimately trying to make FRC be recognized as a real sport, then the GDC must treat it like one. - Jim Zondag [more]

Will your controller be told ahead of time what the arbitrary point is, so that it can plan for that and start to slow down as it approaches? Does the 0.1" precision (accuracy?) apply to this arbitrary point?

Or will the controller need to respond to a "change now!" command given at an arbitrary point in time? In which case, how much overshoot is acceptable?

You can provide a lot more detail without revealing the specific application. The more detail you provide, the more likely you will get useful help.
