Use NavX to make precise turns

Use the NavX to make precise turns.

Use NavX sample code initially

Learn about PID controls by watching the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOuRx9Ujsog

Here is code that uses a PID Controller for moving a set distance using an ultrasonic sensor, but the same principles can apply for the turning and using the NavX

Here is code for turning to an angle

Eventually, make use of PID Subsystems and PID Commands
