Re: Mecanum Einstein this year
I hope we will see a slide drive on Einstein, but other than that i don't think anything on Einstein will be mechanum, crab, or omni, simple reason: speed, although Mechanums can be geared to the same speed as a tank or other drive, 4 shifting gearboxes would be a little bit of weight. anyone who has a shifting gearbox up near 16+ feet per second is going to score more.
