The ROBOTC team is happy to announce the first public PREVIEW build of ROBOTC for Cortex and PIC with PID support (using integrated motor encoders). Sample programs on how to use PID are at the root of the VEX Cortex (VEX2) folder

NOTE: This build should be used only for testing the new PID functionality. This build is not stable for general use (i.e. classroom or competition) - This build should also only be used with the VEX Cortex System (not LEGO/PIC/Arduino)

Current Build:
3.61.2 - 12/7/2012 (Download Here)

New Commands/Functionality:
- VEX PID Commands: http://www.robotc.net/wiki/VEX_PID_Control_Functions
- VEX PID Interface (How To Use): http://www.robotc.net/wiki/VEX_PID_Control

Known Issues (as of 3.61.2):

* driveStraight - Currently enables two motors, but does not enable "synchronization".
* driveSynchronized - Currently enables two motors, but does not enable "synchronization".
* driveStraightToPosition - "Position" commands are not yet implemented in firmware.
* driveSynchronizedToPosition - "Position" commands are not yet implemented in firmware.
* moveMotorToPosition - "Position" commands are not yet implemented in firmware.
* mtrPid_Deadband - Command are not yet implemented in firmware.
* mtrPID_PowerLimit - Command are not yet implemented in firmware.
* mtrPID_Slop - Command are not yet implemented in firmware.

Please post all feedback regarding this build in this forum post (do not start new threads). Thanks!
