Re: Mecanum Einstein this year
We debated this very subject at start of season and decided to stay with 8” Mecanum wheels. We played center zone last year and had no trouble pushing other teams around, inadvertently tipping several over while managing to hold our ground against 6 and 8 wheel drive Bot’s. In the off season we worked perfecting the degrees of freedom Mecanum wheels offer. It’ll be the skill of the drive team that plays and wins on Einstein not the type drive base, just like it was in 05.
