Re: 2008 and drivetrains
We are seriously considering ackermann steering, it seems to be the best option in terms of efficient turning, plus it has a certain familiarity to it.
depending on how complicated we want to get, we may power all four wheels, but at this stage it seems wisest to use KISS and just power the rear wheels.
i quite like this years game so far, and i think that a good drivetrain will be key in building a competitive robot. it could be a major mistake to build a very simple drivetrain and focus only on the manipulator. but i suppose only real gameplay will tell
