Determine if it is necessary for the lifter to be inverted #35

Closed garykac closed 5 years ago

(extracted from issue #31)

In Lifter.java, we call

m_lifter.setInverted(true);

Check is this is actually needed. The lifter is simple (not like the Mecanum wheels), so this probably shouldn't be needed.

This is due to the way that the motor was wired up by the electrical team.

We want it inverted so that positive values in the code cause the lifter to go up and negative values cause it to go down.
