Re: Octocanum Drive/ Mecanum Suspension Designs?
I just thought of something and I was wandering if it had ever been done before. Has anyone done a octicanum-like drivetrain with slide drive that can switch to 6-wheel drop-center? It would definitely push it with weight, but it might make it more worthwhile to go into traction mode for prolonged periods of time.
