==== PID controller tuning guidelines ====
The following table is a guide of the effect of each parameter in a PID. The columns mean the following:
* fast rise - Is the rate at which the output rises
* overshoot - if the output overshoots (and then adjusts) the target
* settling  - this is how the output settles towards the target
* steady error - continuous error from output to a target that doesn't change
