Re: Robot doesn't turn in high gear

I've seen their setup first hand. They have four 8"(?) custom traction wheels in back and 2 AM omni's in front. After watching them at Philly, their low gear was relatively fast, very similar to our speed, but we used the AM Single Speed Gearboxes on a 1 to 1 output to wheel ratio. So I would suggest that you increase the size of your sprockets on the wheels, decrease the size from the gearbox, or even both. That hopefully should help with the turning problem.
