Just curious how you got it to move in a straight line and spin at the same time then, as with a robot centric system, while spinning and translating, it begins to arc. For instance, if it spins clockwise while translating forwards, the "front" of the robot would move clockwise, causing a clockwise arc of motion (and eventually a circle that the robot moves clockwise along the perimeter).
