Re: Fastest drivetrain in Aerial assist?
I was told 1678 gears for 22fps making them the fastest tank drive I know of. As for omni drives we may take 1st as we use mini cims geared 6:1 on 6 inch AM mecanum wheels giving us a top speed of about 19 fps. It comes in handy when things change and I need to be on the other side of the field. Just keep in mind the higher you gear the slower you accelerate. Also, we found that we would loose rollers on our mecanum wheels at speeds above 15 FPS.
