Re: Turning on the bridge

Specifically I'm wondering;
-Has anyone ever seen this plan work? (video would be awesome)
-Is the turning bot usually the first or second bot on the bridge?
+If the narrow front bot is the first bot and it's balanced after turning can other bots easily get the bridge down?
I've seen plenty of turning on the bridge, but not to triple-balance. A zero turn radius and an omnidirectional drive is probably essential to pull this off.
