Re: Effective Drive Base

My team has been doing some testing to see which drivetrain handles the bump best when driving over it at an angle (we assume that we won't be able to hit the bump perfectly straight every time). We have prototyped a few ideas, including 8WD with raised end wheels. Has anyone else considered how their drivetrain will work when driving over the bump at an angle (or if their robot gets hit when driving over the bump)?
