Re: Ground clearance
In a "normal" FRC setting, ground clearance won't matter because the fields are pretty flat. The carpet used is also not "perky", so the wheels don't sink into the surface all that much.
I do not know what the purpose of your drivetrain is, but for a flat surface, it will work great.
To give you an idea, our robot clearance for 2011 was about 1/4 (Swerve drive) and our 2012 robot was about the same (6 wheel WCD measured from the lowest point). No complaints from any of our drivers and we never bottomed out.
