System Response

Theory of Operation

Steady State Error: If your ball stays slightly below the target, increase Ki. It accumulates error over time to push the fan harder.

Overshoot: If the ball shoots past the target and bounces wildly, increase Kd. It acts like a "brake" by reacting to the ball's speed.
