Re: Mecanum Encoders

Thanks for the replies. We have a gyro on the front of our mecanum chasis and coded in, however values only seem to range from 0.0-0.3. Is this normal? Also, we did believe that weight distribution among the wheels was a problem for rotation, but it seems that the wheels just are not spinning properly all-together. This might be due to a motor being inverted, I'll have to test this theory on Monday.

Also, could you explain how to either set the PID paramaters for each motor or use the gyro properly? I figured out how to set each individual PIDF for the 4 Talon SRXs in the loop so that shouldn't be a problem but only testing will tell.
