Re: Question about frame perimeter and wheels

Any part of your robot, including the wheels, affects the frame perimeter.. If your frame itself is 30x30, and your wheels stick out more, then you are too big.. Also keep in mind that the frame perimeter must be non-articulated, and that bumpers mount to the frame perimeter, not inside of it.

It sounds like your best bet to fix the issue is going to be to move the wheels inwards.
