Re: Velocity Control - Battery Compensation Term

At least, this is what we do.

Is there a way to calculate this? Such as if I'm using a motor say with a 10kRPM free speed but I want my shooter to go 2.5kRPM, what method or charts would I need to calculate the ratio that will get me to 2.5kRPM at 60-70% duty cycle? I assume it would be less aggressive gearing than if I did the usual calculation, which in this case would be 4:1
