We have done this for the past two years with great success. Our
2004 robot had a four wheel design with 4WD, and we had many problems with turning. Our 2005 and 2006 robots
had 6WD with the center wheel slightly lower than our two outer wheels. If you use a pneumatic wheel for the center, you can adjust how offset the center wheel is.
