It looks like you do drive tri-wheel assembly as well as wheels; which what we I am thinking. Our design is a bit simpler though. I hope we can finish prototype very soon (we are still waiting for some parts. see this
thread for details)
How well does your robot with tri-wheel climb and how high? also seeing that you are using omni wheels, I assume you don't have problems with turning on the floor?
