Re: Help with Swerve Drive Programming??

So the real problem in implementing a competent swerve drive is how to control each wheel to obtain predictable operation and acceptable response to driver commands. There are threads (and technical papers) discussing this problem.
wow, didn't think about that. yikes, makes it so much harder than it sounds.
Thanks for info! Definitely gonna look into it now
