Re: Omni-wheel accuracy

If you set the motors to brake instead of coast when your controller axes are within your dead band, that should solve your problem.

I agree that putting encoder feedback on the wheels is nice, but it's expensive ($56 per encoder), the encoders are touchy to get mounted properly, and it takes extra expertise to figure out how to program them once you have the instruments setup.
