Re: pic: Frog Force 503 Omnitank Drivetrain (rAC)
I like this drive train concept a lot. We were working on something similar earlier this year and never really got it finished.
I definitely would like to know how much the omni's are in the contact with the ground when shifted to traction with a fully loaded robot and if they slip during pushing matches.
Can you show a picture of the ground clearances in both omni and traction mode. We played around a lot with getting both omni wheels off the ground and it seemed like we would need to move the traction wheel a lot to get that done.
