Re: Advice for driving on ice?

FRC190 has dropped the puck at a couple Worcester Sharks games with different robots but all have been 6-wheel, rubber-wheeled robots. I can't imagine mecanum being a huge issue as the advice Dana gave applies to all robots (and cars).

Go slow and be careful of oversteering. Once you close control, don't keep spinning the wheels more!
