What do you guys mean by "skidding"? When I think of skidding, I think of
putting on the brakes, locking up my tires, and screeching to a stop. That
obviously doesn't apply here.

Are you talking about a general loss of traction, leading to robot
inaccuracy? If so, are we talking mostly during turns? Or accelerating from
a dead stop?
