Mecanum Wheel


#1

Hi there!

I have Mecanum Wheel not Mecanum Kit itself. I connected 4 mecanum wheels to encoder motors (I took these motors from Ultimate 2.0 robot kit) and used MegaPi as a controller which used in Ultimate 2.0.

Robot moves backward and forward very well but unfortunately, it doesn’t slide left or right. It just turns around when you want to slide it right or left. How can achieve to move it right/left?

Hi Eshgin,
Please send a video to show me the issue.
Actually I want to know your assemble and the wiring.
Also please share me the program that you use to control the motor.
I will test it on my side.
Thanks.

Dear @tech_support, sorry for the late reply. I just realized that I didn’t connect mecanum wheels correctly. I used this picture and reassemble again. Now it works
