[Ginger Power]

The GreenHorns built a slide drive for our Robot in 3 days. We had no problems at all driving straight, turning left, right etc. It seemed to operate exactly like you would expect a tank drive to operate. We drove the center wheel with a toughbox mini and 1 cim motor. This amount of power seemed to be more than sufficient. We had no trouble strafing. We installed our single center omni wheel towards the middle of our robot and like I said it strafed as you would expect. We tried shifting around our center of gravity around with heavy ballasts and they didn't affect how it strafed. I can't speak to moving moving the wheel that far off center. Intuition would tell me that it may arc more than strafe perfectly straight.
