  • One wheel more powerful

    No matter what I do, one of my drive motors seems to be more powerful that the other. I've replaced the gearbox, changed motors and it always tracks off to the right. I'm unsure of how to counter it but I have a feeling with it being something to do with one of my blue wheel nuts not being centred yet I'm unsure how to correct that aswell, any help anyone?

    Move the trim on the channel that controls your steering to the right

          Drill motors are faster in forward than reverse.... thus one side is always going to be slower or faster.

          Your bots left hand motor will always be the faster one in forward drive ...but the slower one in reverse drive.

          It might be possible to alter the throw ( servo travel ) on both motor channels to give say +90% forward speed on the left motor with -100% reverse ...and +100% forward on the right motor with -90% reverse....then mixed.

              throw the trims over like i said. It will go fine in a straight line but won't go backwards in a straight line. You can get a gyro if you really want to mess around with the control but i've always found it to be unnecessary
