Re: 2015: Year of the Mecanum

Our team is also considering using a mecanum drive train. We have never used mecanum before, but we firgured we have lots of resources to lean on and using mecanums will be very adventageous. Any suggestions for drive train layout, gearboxes, motors, bearings, etc? Also where're the best places to purchase mecanum wheels, I've only seen the Andy Mark ones and Vex ones... are those good? I'm extremely excited to start playing with a mecanum robot, but an also very nervous since our team is new to mecanum... Any suggestions?
