Re: Strange Jaguar/CIM Motor Behavior

James,
If you give a forward command to one side and reverse command to the other side (assuming identical throttle values) then the robot will turn on it's center axis. If you want to turn on an axis outside of the robot, only drive forward on the side opposite the direction you want to turn. If you want to turn in an arc, simply adjust the throttle values to the two sides independently.
