Control glich
« on: July 06, 2014, 03:30:36 AM »
I'm making a slightly insane robot on robot arena 2, but when I wired the controls for the drive motors they only worked on 1 of the drive motors . I wired AD for the left wheel and JL for the right one. Here's a picture of the wiring and 2 of the bot.

I can only see the top 2 attachments. Can you embed the pictures rather than attaching them? Just use the Image Uploader on the front page and it'll give you a code using IMG tags that you can paste into your message to show the picture.

Thanks, playzooki, I couldn't see it.

Yestisbeast, could you show us a screenshot of what you have wired these controls with?

Is this anything to do with "Robots won't turn when you build them sideways." or not?

that's actually exactly the problem. When you build a bot intended to be oriented perpendicular from how you build it in the lab, it will not be able to turn no matter what you do.


For once the mods did something right

Can a strafe drive system maybe work? Something like a third motor perpendicular to the drive, just like some basic rc cars have.

I think it's the building sideways thing. I built it sideways so I could completely incase the chassis in the disc shell, to make it very hard to damage.  Thx 4 every1's help.
