Re: Best Drivetrain options

We have reconfigured a couple off season projects to the needs of this game for testing, and here's what we know:
  • mecanum 6" does really well over the bump, surprisingly so.
  • 6" Colson in front, omni in back does great too. we think it drives a bit like street racing, so its currently "drift drive" for us, though "mullet drive" is gaining.
  • we cant decide between the two yet, so we are building both and running them through drive practice. we will let the drivers and coach decide.

I'm sure swerve is awesome. Next year, we will make that our off-season project. We have no experience with "H" style slide, so it's off the table too.

Hope that info is helpful.
