Tank drive SysID logging examples?

Was wondering if anyone would be willing to share some examples of how your team has set up the new SysID usage on their tank drives this year?

Would be a big help since my team is getting into it now.

We are a new team and are exploring options this year. One thing that looks promising is this Advantage Kit example for differential drive, that incorporates Path Planner. It has four autos to perform the different tests needed for sysID to calculate FF values.

thank you!

Let me know if you have some success here. The process was pretty slick for us to setup, but we are receiving a negative value for Ks for some reason. We are using SparkMaxes FYI.

Interesting, we are running into the issue where our robot is moving way too quickly in the dynamic tests so it isn’t safe or useful in our field. Have had to deal with this?

Yes the dynamic test gets the robot up to top speed. It should only need to run for a few seconds to provide the results you need.
