Re: Problems turning

This years KOP wheels are flat. We drive on a 3d surface. The edges of the wheels tend to dig into the carpet. The skyway wheels Are slightly v shaped and not as grippy. The tend to turn better. Unfortunately, having the power of 2 cims to a side and tank drive makes things much better. We are using skyway wheels this year. They are cheap and adapters are easy to make. We also bought IFI AL sprockets for weight.
