Re: pic: First off season project
 

Just wanted to say great job on the off-season project 3397! This team has a lot of great students that are very easy to interact with.

Let us know how the cantilevered omni wheels hold up. I know you probably won't be putting any significant kind of weight on it but it may be a good test to load it up and see how much the shafts flex.

Post up a video once you have it running!

I agree this is a great project -- kudos to U City for taking it on!

Re: cantilevered omniwheels, 3620 ran them in 2015. You can see them by zooming in on the linked picture (our TBA beauty shot). The wheels and shafts held up very well through 69 competition matches at five events (two districts, DCMP, CMP, and one off-season).

The plastic clamping bearing blocks did not fare as well -- we broke a couple of them on the competition robot and one on a demonstration robot also. We will not be using them cantilevered in a drive train for a full-contact game, but will definitely consider them for some mechanisms.
