Re: Why don't I ever see robots that steer like a car

We built a prototype Ackermann steering robot using the kitbot chassis, it was quick and easy to build and worked ok, but the steering radius was pretty large and we also figured out how to make a 6wd skid steer more controllable...so we gave up on the car steering idea.
