Hi, I bought the 4 wheel omnibot and the 4 wheel meccanum robot. The meccanum robot will move left, right, fwd, back rotate left and rotate right. The omnibot (which has wheels on the corners at 45°) will move in all directions except rotate. If i lift the robot i see when i ask for rotate the wheels are fighting each other. I cannot see anything in the arduino libraries to differentiate between the robots, both use OMNI4WD library. I have spent a long time searching for answers but I cannot see how both robots with different wheel layouts and types can use the same library/class to move correctly. Please can someone suggest what can be wrong? thank you very much.
Michael.
The kits I have are :
4wd meccanum RB Nex 03
4WD Omni-Directional Arduino Compatible Mobile Robot Kit RB-Nex-06
Hi Michael,
They indeed use the same library in the code provided by the manufacturer.
What’s the issues exactly with your RB-Nex-03 ? There is another example available HERE as well.
