Re: How does the trailer affect your driving???
When I drive the bot without the trailer I find it a lot easier than without. Yes it does slow us down substantially but it also adds some stability among other things. The trick I found it to always keep the trailer moving and use it like a counterweight to help you turn and other things. Also when changing directions (backwards to forwards) you can use the trailer as a point of rotation and do a 180 if you stay on the sticks right.
Btw, We have a wide base 6wd. (similar to a wide base 4wd)
