Go to Post So why are we trying to go to Mars? It's because it's bigger, better, and bolder. Doing what nearly no other team can do, and defying all those who say it can't be done. That reward is a lot more than 9 points. - Mike [more]

I'm trying to figure out what it's missing that makes it not as mobile as a swerve. It can rotate at any time by applying different speeds to the left and right sides, and it can move in any direction at any time by varying the forward/backward and left/right drive motors. Rotating while traveling in a straight line is difficult, but only because it takes a lot of coordination, not because physics keeps it from being possible.
