Forward Zero Power Acceleration Tuner

Purpose

The Forward Zero Power Acceleration Tuner measures how your robot decelerates when moving forward and power is cut from the drivetrain. This value is critical for improving motion accuracy in Pedro Pathing.

Setup and Instructions

1. Open the ForwardZeroPowerAccelerationTuner.java OpMode.
2. Ensure your robot has enough space to accelerate to 30 inches/second forward. You can adjust this velocity in the FTC Dashboard under the ForwardZeroPowerAccelerationTuner dropdown.
3. Run the OpMode.

Output

• Deceleration: After the robot reaches the target velocity and power is cut, telemetry will display the robot’s deceleration rate.
• Ensure the robot drifts to a complete stop for accurate measurements.

Inputting the Results

1. Open the FConstants class and navigate to the static{} block.
2. Then, on a new line, add FollowerConstants.forwardZeroPowerAcceleration = [OUTPUT], with [OUTPUT] being the deceleration rate output from the tuner.

Note: In Step 2, you only need to make a new line if you are not using the quickstart, otherwise, you can just modify the line that already does this.

Congratulations, you’ve completed the forward zero power acceleration tuning!
