Leaving this spot blank until I can get access to my youtube account to post the link of it working here. (Anyone that has the link feel free to post it) I am at school so I cant get on youtube to get the link.
Why would someone want to strafe while intaking and why would someone want to drive forward and backwards while descore rescoring.
The goal was to add the ability to strafe without it affecting normal driving in anyway.
I have spent a lot of time thinking about it so if anyone can think of another way to do it. I would be interested to hear it](http://dl.dropbox.com/u/90045276/video-2013-01-17-14-48-11.mp4)
Hey, I saw that you had four motors on the 2 back wheels that were pivoting. Maybe you should 2 of those motors to the 2 front wheels, so you can move diagonally. You would lose half the power strafing though…
That is exactly what went through my mind while talking about it with some of my teammates. It would be interesting to mess around with vertical mounting for the motors to save space and fit two of them in the front without interfering with any intake mechanism. Sideways strafing doesn’t really seem to be something that needs all 4 motors unless you’re pushing another robot.
