while maintaining the same vector of velocity: does this mean a) while maintaining the same joystick direction command or b) while the vehicle maintains a constant direction

The drive tries to change this yaw rotation : did you mean the driver tries to change this yaw rotation? If not, what did you mean?

creates a whole other set of problems : what sort of problems? Could you give a couple of examples please?


I re-read your earlier posts and you never stated whether you are using omni or mec wheels.
