Re: Robot refuses to turn!

What are your dimensions?

Distance between axles also your width.

24:1 between your wheels and the CIM's may be a bit light for an 8" wheel with that much traction but I would think it should be able to turn if you get the right ratio between width and center distance.

Give the dims and let's talk.
