What motor controller are you using (Talon SR, Talon SRX, Jaguar...)?

Essentially, you need to declare a motor controller and a joystick axis, and do a motor.set(joystick.getX()) several times a second.


Here's a recent snapshot of our current "elevator" at github. It's built on the IterativeRobot template.

Hi GeeTwo,

What is the purpose of a PID subsystem? I have never understood why PIDSubsystems are used -- couldn't this have been accomplished using just a regular subsystem? What are the advantages to using a PIDSubsystem and when should it be used?
