Re: Direct Drive Four Motor System

I would think the weight and size of four trannys might be a problem. We had four wheel drive robots in the past and turning was very hard. We have switched to six wheel drive with a lowered center wheel and turning is very easy. I know you must have your reasons, but can you tell us the advantage of having four trannys.
