Re: Motor Bias
much like people No two motors are exactly identical. nor will be there precise speed in forward and reverse. but when you have these motors plugged into a robot moving it around the field the difference in performance is Hardly if not Completely unnoticeable. so honestly just don't worry about it these are 130 pound robots made by high school kids as long as they can move where they need to move and do what they need to do its a perfect robot it doesn't matter if it does not move completely straight. Even for aton mode the difference in performance of motors has no humanly noticeable effect on the functionality of a robot. Damage, poor lubrication. goofed up wheels, chain tension, belt tension, wear and tear, un-symmetrical chassis and less than perfect drive trains are the Prime contributors to a robot not moving in a straight line.

This is about more than building a robot, we cannot only do the fun things. If you are fully involved than you will be prepared to do anything in life. - Andy Brockway [more]
