Re: 4WD Turning Difficulties
Simple skid steer is almost never the correct route to take. If i was going skid steer I would still be tempted to do something like a 6wd with a lowered center wheel to make the control of the robot more consistent (turning around the center) and to make the turning easier.
I would need to try some tests but even if I had the resources to build anything I'm pretty sure I would still go for the 6wd drive over a swerve simple cause the traction is so low a swerve could get excessively hard to control. Then again this isn't really a problem for me considering I'm mentoring a team with very little machining capabilities.
