Re: Spinning the Robot with Mecanum Wheels

If you were to draw an imaginary line with the roller axes as they look from a top-down view, the lines should make an 'X'. More than likely, yours make an 'O'.

You want the 'O' on the bottom, not the top.

Another symptom of this is that it may be difficult to maintain a straight line when going diagonally.
