More tire disaster
Another go at fixing the steering oscillation through PID gains & gyro padding led nowhere, so the next theory was back to the culprit of the Ruckus oscillation: worn bearings. The plastic bearings were definitely loose & the lunchbox was much more stable when it was new. It'll be another long, slow UPS delivery to do what used to take a run to the hobby shop.
Then came the revelation that the right front inside tire was completely ground off again & the left front inside tire was wearing out much more slowly. The experiment in lowered suspension was still a disaster. There was a slight boost in efficiency, but they were now off on only the right side. It wasn't the camber or the toe in. This is a real stumper. Those tires are expensive. |
