Re: HELP!

I have some clarification questions and then an answer based on my assumptions (questions).

1. Can you turn the robot well when you are already moving?

Better, but not amazingly

2. Does the problem only happen when you are sitting still and you want to turn without moving forward first?

more or less yes

3. do you have the wheels on one side go in reverse when turning or are you trying to turn with just one drive wheel? (see our experience below for why I ask this question).

one is in reverse and one is going forwards
