Re: Autonomous using encoders

Another common problem i have seen like this is wheel size.

If you are using pneumatic tires make sure the outside diameter of the tire is the same.

If you are using solid tires make sure the wear is the same.

When tires have difference sizes from side to side then the robot will travel a bit farther causing a turn regardless of the output speed from you reduction being the same and your encoders working fine.
