Re: Tuning PID Code

Ok, so our team looked around the lab for 100 K ohm potentiometers, and we could not find any. So after some thought we decided to slice open the KOP Joystick from last year (it was semi-busted anyway) and extract the 2 potentiometers from there.

To our surpise, these pots are 120K ohms, can we still use them for the PID trimming board? Seems to me that if they were used for the KOP joystick, there is no reason why they would pose a threat.

Thanks for your help, I just want to make sure because that OI is mighty expensive to repair/replace if we blew it...
