We wanted to run full speed the whole time and not worry about going back to a waypoint if we overshot it. We didn't do much testing, we just picked a box that was big enough to work. We made this number configurable per waypoint so changing it just required updating the range in our waypoint list.
Did you use a PID algorithm to get to a waypoint? It seesm like this would take care of overshoot.

Just curious.
