Re: Effectiveness of Casters
The only reason that I would ever stick a castor on a robot would be to help turn. I would use a cylinder to engage or retract it, but I would never let two of them be in constant contact with the ground. If you had been around in past years, you would see robots with two driven wheels and two castors like you said. Basically, they would spin around like crazy, with very little control.
