I'm not much of a programmer but here's what I understand. We're using distance, angle, and angle lock (maintain angle even through uneven weight distribution and container drag) PIDs to compensate for the dragging RCs.
Great robot 1310. The Einstein mechanum curse has no chance

Couple ideas for auton: you could try driving more towards the wall and use the wall to help you pin the 3rd bin in, or have a longer side arm to allow the bins to "stack" a bit (though they may be more prone to tipping over)
