Re: Too much traction
Thank you very much everyone, I was just talkign to a mentor and we now have a few things we will try:
1) Move the center wheels to change the wheelbase
2) Use a 1” wide wheel for 2 of the wheels which will reduce the friction (less wheel tread on the carpet)
3) Raise or lower the casters.
4) Install larger casters
5) Replace a wheel set for a pair of omni wheels
6) Change the wheel tread to lower friction type
7) Change the gear ratio of the drive
8) Install larger wheels on the left side of the robot (old dirt track stock car trick)
Number 8 is my personal fav cause it keeps in the spirit of the bases of this years game
