I am using a simple robot kit from parallax and everyone in my class wants to increase the wheel size, the amount of power supplied to the servos is constant, but I am having trouble seeing how this makes the robot that much quicker. It seems like the servos need to work harder with a larger wheel and yes it will be faster, but our servos can’t work any harder then they already are on the smaller wheels. I was just wondering if this is a true statement and if anyone had any other ideas to make our robot a little bit quicker.
Keep in mind the programming is sending max power to the servos, so we can’t do anything in that sense. I was hoping for some hardware tips.
