Re: Mecanum Einstein this year

i doubt we will see a purely mechanum drive on Einstein, ever. team with the maximum amount of experience and funds, who might be able to make it competitive enough to get there, would probably spring for swerve or crab drive. teams a teir down from that resource wise usualy stick to tank drive and shifters, a octumanium or nonadrive might fall in this tier. because mechanum is "an easier way to get 3 degrees of freedom" it involves trade offs, and to get to Einstein you really cannot have many trade offs.
