Re: GETTING AWAY FROM THOSE WALLS?

and then of course assuming 1) you have lots and lots of torque. 2) you have plenty of grip to spare. 3) the walls are not bolted into the floor every foot.
then the walls will move. or at least give a little if you are missing either 1) or 2) or maybe both. so you basically dont have to worry about getting stuck at all

*edit. oh right. you are pushed sideways into the wall. nvm 2) then well aaaanyways, the REAL question is if you have 2wd but have the drivewheels at the center point of your robot. either you need a lot of torque qith grip or just less grip. either way, unless your robot is a circle, center 2wd is probably the hardest to get away from a "parallel park to the wall"
