But why add an extra gearing stage when you could simply mount the gearbox in the same direction.
I was just gonna suggest this. Also, the only problem we had with turning was with our open loop autonomous when we went straight we turned slightly. this was probably cause by our electric board and battery being on the same side and nothing on the other. We tool a Tachometer and measured the speed of the motors with no load and they were going the same speed. Are you sure this wasn't your problem? or maybe they have a direction basis while under load?
