Re: Crab Steering on Regolith
I haven't got my hands on a wheel yet, but those who have tell me that it is slightly rounded to give a "high centre".

This could cause the change in friction published in the manual section 10.2.4.1

Jason

Running the wheel backwards (dynamic inline friction... 0.5) would be worse than just turning the wheel sideways (dynamic transverse friction 0.10) according to the published values.
