Re: Hex Kiwi Drive

The programming on this would be very very tricky. Figuring out how much power to give each motor in the "Forward" direction would take some playing with and tuning because two wheels are pointed "Forward" and the other four are angled.

Although this is a cool idea and looks interesting it probably is not very practical. In most cases it would make the most sense to just do a 3 wheel kiwi or an H-Drive. For that matter, even a swerve would probably make more sense.
