I'm wondering the same thing. I generally design the drive system for our team, but this year so far we feel like agility is above being defensive (not my personal though, I feel like good wheels with nice grip are a great thing to have on the chance that everything else in our robot decides to fail and we can't fix it before the next match). I've personally never done mechanum, we tend to stay more towards tank drive. But there has already been talk of swerve drive and butterfly drive. However we are leaning more towards mechanum because I am moving on to the more complicated subsystems in mechanical, as is my co-captain. So we will see what happens. Any help with mechanum would be appreciated though!
