V-Tail Mixing

Re: V-Tail Mixing

I don't want to say too much for fear of making myself look more stupid after my last statement haha.

The only thing about that setup you suggest Woody that I noticed today when we were testing it with wheels off the ground was the XL and Electronize's respond slightly differently to stick movements and that might cause it to veer off to the side, especially when accelerating from stopped or slowing down to a stop.

Can't hurt to try .... but it might be doomed to failure...

I'm glad we're trying it on the day of the champs then

Yeah, matching the wheel speeds will be a bit tricky, suppose the best way to judge will be by the sound of the motors. The idea of the Electronize controlling the rear wheels instead of the front was that they're less precise than the XL and since the back wheels are more likely to be skidding and (potentially?) wheel spinning when turning, any speed differences would be barely noticeable or not have a profound effect on the robot's driving characteristics.
I guess time, and testing, will tell though.

Re: V-Tail Mixing

The motors are all the same Woody yes. Sorry I missed that bit of your response until now.
