To test curved approaches, you will need make one of the servos turn slower than the
other. You can do this by modifying the code in the Main Routine. Simply reduce one of
the
right, change
tighter turn, try
the turn tighter still. For a wider turn, try
ServoRight, 710
You can repeat this for left turns. First, restore the right servo to
650
same adjustment pattern applies for the left servo. For tighter turns, adjust the
commands
. Then, change the left servo's control signal to

Test a variety of approach angles and plow intersection points with the same
full-speed-forward settings.
Experiment with a curved approach with one SumoBot and a straight approach
with the other.
Also experiment with curved vs. curved.
Do not adjust your plows.
The strategies presented in this book will use the head-on approach. You can modify your
programs (and the plows) to optimize for different approach angles, but wait until after
Chapter 5.
