Re: Drop-center drivetrains: Why?

With a dropped-center 6 or 8 wheel robot the wheels contacting the ground when turning are closer together than on a 4 wheeled robot. Because the wheels are closer together it makes it easier to turn. This is one of the reasons it is easier for wide base robots to turn.
