Re: Normalizing motor speeds using Arcade Drive in Labview

Re: Normalizing motor speeds using Arcade Drive in Labview

First off, appreciate all the help.

The problem ended up being a loose electrical connection to the motor and a slight binding problem in the gear box.

Once we fixed all that, everything is looking good.

Funny how as the team's programming mentor, the first place I turn to is code. I should know better and will check my premises next time.

Sounds like a software problem to me...
