Re: H-Drive Question

With slide ("H") drives, it's not so much that the center wheel is in the middle of your robot; it's that the center wheel is under your center of mass. If your center of mass is in front, or behind the center wheel, you'll find yourself rotating slightly when you try to strafe.

So, teams that hold the totes in front of their robot will end up in trouble unless they do some maths.
