hi, I really like the library.congratulations on being stable. do you think it is possible to replace the steering wheel with a potensiometers instead of an encoder?

I think it is possible, but I did not implement it yet. I would not recommend it though. Potentiometers are very noisy and degrade over time, they have mechanical limits, so one should find way to prevent wheel going further pot's limits, also arduino's ADC has too low precision for steering axis.
