Re: Crab Steering on Regolith

i believe that crab drive would be allowed because rule R06 reffers to the "normal" orriantation as the wheels being flat on the ground. this only means that the wheels cant be angled to the floor, it has no constraints on how the wheels can be in oriantiation to the robot.

in short, rule R06 states that the wheels have to be perpendiculer with the floor, therefore crab drive would be possible.
