How do I get 4 omnidirectional wheels with 4 motors go left and right using a controller?
In the attached pdf you can see the base we have built (on the first page).
We are using Omni directional wheels with 4 motors.
On page 3 you can see which motors we have plugged in (FL 1, FR 2, FR 9, FR10).
Also on page 3 I have done a table working out which polarity the motors need to go Left, Right, Forwards, Backwards, Turning Left and Turning Right (in the online window).
When I try to program the controller (page 2), when I set up the settings and download them in arcarde style, I can get it to go forwards, backwards, turn left and turn right. I can’t get it to go left or right. The Same happens in tank style.
This is more geared towards RobotC, and it appears you are using EasyC but I think it is very important for you to watch the video linked on this thread. It will help you understand the theory of programming an x-drive.
Also, I think EasyC has a holonomic drive preset build in doesn’t it? You should look for a block that says ‘mecanum’ or ‘holonomic’. I don’t use EasyC, but I seem to remember people saying there is a built in way to do holonomic drives.
