Re: Impact of Bumps
Guys,
Nice work - Be careful to pay attention to how a robot will behave when it is propelled by wheel torques instead of pulled by a rope.
The forces the wheels create have different locations and directions than the rope force, and as the robot tilts they vary differently than the rope force varys.
