Robot refuses to turn!

I don't see the rule about starting on top of another bot this year. Perhaps they're shifting they're strategy?

Umm, how would you accomplish this when every robot has to start in a separate zone?

Sorry it has been a busy weekend. The bot is up operating and fully functional. with a high gear of 9 to 1 she really moves. We have ball possession and a kicker going just fine. No climbing.

So it actually turns correctly now?

And if it does turn correctly now, what did you determine the problem to be?

Put omnis on the corners. The spin test we did was impressive. We assume the issue was drive train inefficiency, we did the math and the bot should have turned....

Glad you figured it out.
