Re: Another chapter to the 6WD vs. Mecanum debate

Our team decided on mecanum drive day 2 of build season, we had resurrected our 2007 chassis into a driving mecanum proto-chassis by the end of week one. We have 1/2 our chassis done now (waiting on more brackets from 80/20) and because we are making most of our robot from 80/20 we will probably make a practice chassis. I think that because 2007 was the introduction of andymark mecanum wheels that it seems they havnt had a decent chance to prove them selves since then, this seems to be that year.
