Re: Mecanum drive cartesian problems
AFAIK, you should be able to use the cartesian methods without a gyro just fine. Internally the movement vector is just rotated by the gyro angle. Without a gyro, strafing will always be relative to the robot, so if you turn while strafing you will move in an arc.
