I’ve heard it everywhere but I don’t know what it is.

A slew rate controller is a controller in your code that in the long run keeps motors from tripping PTCs

It smooths the control input given to motors. Going from - 127 to 127 can be bad for every part of the system. So you limit the change to 25 motor power per 50 milliseconds

Instead of allowing the motor to go all the way to 127 right away, the slew rate controller brings you up in increments. This helps calm the current spikes down and not trip the PTC. Because the current spikes without the motor moving are what heats up the PTC so much. So the slew rate says you m…

BLRS/SIGBots made a motor manager library for PROS. The library gives you slew rate, motor inversion, and also gives you the ability to recompute the commanded output speed, so you could to add a layer between the range -127,127] and actual value that’s sent to the motors - like a true speed computa…
