Navigating using Motor Encoders during Autonomous Period with Blocks Programming

Describes how to program motor encoders using FTC Blocks Programming to control a robots movement during the Autonomous Period

Can you change from Run_to_Position to something else in order to use the color sensor to stop on the line?

[bobnunny]

When trying to test the Run to Position code I get an error: "Fatal error occurred while executing the block labeled "set backleft.Mode to." Please help! I have checked the Configuration file for the motor name, I have checked the encoder cables. I am using a Rev Hex Motor.

Can someone help me out with the encoders to rev expansion hub connection?

Hi- we are trying to use encoders with the REV core motor.
We can run the motors, w/out encoders, using the gamepad.
But we can net get the motors to do respond to the buttons...
The program has "A" assigned to "Go to Position 28000"
and "B" assigned to "Go to Position "500"
But nothign happens.
If you have any advice, we'd appreciate it.
Or even better, if you'd make a video of 'Using encoder to run a motor to a specific location"
Thank!
Michael
