You may notice a lot of "power slide" maneuvering with the 4 omnis. What you probably won't notice is much audio, and yes it was on. The team decided to go with 4 omnis rather than 2+2 omni/traction, which would have made the driving dynamics very different. The 4 omnis did make it much easier to place the robot on the field (by pushing it sideways) since the gearboxes were hard to backdrive, at least early on. The chassis has since been converted to 2+2 for demo events, and the chassis can be maneuvered in any direction now that the gearboxes are broken in. |
This is great. Omni wheels are a lot of fun once you get the hang of them.
