Re: pic: 2605 Mecanum Drive

With mecanums it's not a bad idea to gear a bit on the fast side anyways. Even though your wheels are spinning at a particular speed, doesn't mean your robot will move at the same speed - especially if your mecanum rollers don't have a lot of friction, which is ideal for moving sideways.

It's one of the strangest things to see a mecanum drivetrain drive, and watch the wheels spin faster than the robot is travelling...
