The latest ArduRover v2.30 code is using the max speed value for the cruise speed #71

Recent testing has revealed that the latest version of the ArduRover2 v2.30 code is using the maximum speed value for the cruise speed and not the programmed cruise speed value.

Since Tridge and I have been working at updating the ArduRover2 code I have come to have a better understanding of the interaction between the maximum speed and the cruise speed. The max speed is in percent while the cruise speed is in m/sec. If the max speed percentage required to reach the cruise speed is not sufficient, then the throttle output will remain at the max speed value. The throttle always goes to the max speed value at start up in order to reach the cruise speed asap. So for experimental purposes I recommend a very low cruise speed while playing with the max speed value. Regards, TCIII
