How many teams plan on using CAN this year?

This means you can have a CAN Receive waiting for an enumeration message, and reconfiguring when it does so.

Thanks for the reply. I rigged it to do something similar last year, but the issue is with encoders. If the Jag dies it forgets its last position. This requires re-initialization with the motor in the correct orientation.

One method to fix the initialization issue would be to use pots for feedback instead of encoders. OR we could continuously read the current position and use that for initializing the position upon instantiation (it defaults to 0).
