Exclamation Sliding help

yesterday we were working with our robot and when we slide all of the wheels spin towards the center. we tried reversing the polarity and changing the code but it didn't make a difference. Can you please help?

Re: Sliding help

You have a mecanum bot, right?

If so, that is something that should be happening when you strafe one way. If it happens going both ways, then you have a problem. The other way should have them all going away from the center.

If you have a non-mecanum drive and are trying to use mecanum code, then you're making a mistake.
