I have searched and searched for some specific information on Mecanum wheels. This is not for a FIRST team, but for a class I'm taking. (If any of you are familiar with Square One, that's the program its through. To read more:

So back to the information we need:
What is the suggested RPM for Mecanum wheels?
What motor has had the best outcome?
Which is best for motor reduction? (ex: gearbox, chain, belt, etc)
Any other helpful tips about building with mecanum wheels?
P.S. We are really only building a chassis to mount to the bottom of the jeep, and everything is autonomous.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!
