Re: Crab Steering on Regolith
My team was actually looking to use a crab/swerve drive for the first time this year. Upon seeing that we would be pulling a trailer, I began wondering how that would affect changing direction. Going forward was obvious, you are just pulling. But if you go left or right to avoid a robot or get where ou want to be, would the trailer cause the robot to do kind of an awkward rotation while it moved? And the trailer would jack-knife when trying to go backwards, would that cause the robot to want to follow it somewhat?
