link is not valid encoder.py

The microcontroller should be flashed with this sketch (use the Arduino IDE to do that): https://github.com/zlite/donkeycar/tree/master/donkeycar/parts/encoder/encoder

This link not valid. please update link to Arduino sketch (ino file)

@Ahrovan,
The Arduino sketches for both the mono and quadrature encoders can be found here now.

You can copy and paste the sketch of your choice into a new Arduino IDE sketch and flash into an Arduino of your choice.
I use the Adafruit Metro Mini with USB connector, but an Arduino Mini will work too as long as it has a USB connector.

@Ahrovan The older encoder implementation is being deprecated. There is a new branch that implements an encoder->tachometer-odometer-kinematics pipeline for pose estimation, which makes it suitable to use with the path_follow template. That branch has an open pull request #1089 that we hope to merge very soon (maybe this weekend?). The encoder sketches in the branch are compatible with the older encoder sketch, so you can use them with the older version of Donkeycar if you want.

@Ahrovan did you give the encoder sketches in the PR at try?

[Ahrovan]

Next week I will do and reply here

[Ezward]

@Ahrovan have you been able to try this?
