Watch 2337 and 2619 duke it out. 2337 had 8" mecanums and custom gear boxes. 2619 had 4 wheel tank drive with a wide bot. 2619 was the red alliance's main scoring robot and 2337 shut them down until the end game. |
I'm looking for an offensive mecanum bot avoiding defense, not the other way around.
Also, with all due respect to 2337, they literally did not strafe the entire match. This match could have happened with a tank drive. They also played position defense rather than anything involving pushing.
