ok. here's what confuses me. if i want a robot that drives just as easily sideways as it does front and back, would it be best to have a 45. because the way i see it, the more you get away from that angle, the more energy it will take to move it sideways. correct me if i'm wrong because i feel like i'm missing a huge part of the puzzle here. but i think i understand the most part. it's basic physics really.

sorry for the mis-wording on my last post. i was pressed for time. i meant to say "easily move forwards and sideways". it's not that i don't understand it, because i do. i just need it explained how it would be advantageous to set it at any other angle.
