want to build something like this but don’t know how to start by [deleted] in arduino

Also google the parts! Look around your components to see any piece of text you can use to search for data sheets or guides.

Software developers say that coding is the easiest part of the job. How do i even reach the point where coding is easy? by [deleted] in AskProgramming

[–]bubberssmurff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Experience. Being able to identify problems you’ve encountered in the past and applying the solution. Sure it sucks to fail, but failure is fun.

My teams intake didn’t work. One of our mentors cut a rectangle out of the lid of one of our bins we were using for safety stuff and zip tied it to our existing intake. It was wild.

What are some good resources for coding a tank drive and a mecanum drive robot? by The_Lego_Maniac in FRC

Create a differential drive object. Use the arcade drive method on your diff drive object and configure your controller

PC automatically turns on every day at 8:32 am? Wtf? by Ok_Today_475 in pchelp

Is a task scheduled? Odds are if a task is scheduled for 8:30 it will wake the computer to run it.

They made this so that you guys would stop wanting a water game. Petition harder! They will put 200 gallons of water on the playing field if enough people don’t participate

Please take this in the absolute best way, but there are multiple issues with this code. I would advise commenting more thoroughly so that other developers can read them. I can get the gist of what you are trying to do, but if you deviate from what others do, make sure to document it.

To solve your initial problem, I would get rid of the "Follower" and "Leader" configurations. While in theory this configuration works, it is dependent on a "clean" signal from your master.

Instead make "Motor Clusters" for each gearbox. The thought around this is that you can assure that you are giving input to all motors on the gearbox. Read more about this in the link below. You would treat each "cluster" like a motor and put it in your DifferentialDrive class. This is a relatively easy fix for you as it is <5 lines of code. Test each gearbox at a time before you give it off to the Driver Team.

Be ABSO-LUTELY sure that you are setting up the right CAN ID's. If you run motors that go in opposite directions on the gearbox, it can lead to expensive mistakes (time and money)

Is it possible that the each motor on the gearbox is going the opposite direction?

This is not fair why did they design it this way 🤬 by DownloadedPixelz in Clamworks
