Re: Two wheel drive robot ?

I'm not sure why your drivetrain would need to exceed the transport configuration in-game. It seems like an extra engineering challenge for no good reason (I know we've already got plenty of those to deal with).

A 2-powered-traction/2-unpowered-omni drive should work fine for this game. Make sure you understand the trade-offs involved, especially when making a drivetrain decision.

If any system on your robot works, make sure it's that one (That also means that if any system on your robot might compromise the effectiveness of your drivetrain, the other system should generally be the one changed).
