Re: Mecanum wheels on the front, regular wheels on the back
This design is not going to strafe, no matter how you turn the wheels, barring some unusual anisotropic coefficients of friction.
Placed on an approximately square base, this design would be marginally better at turning and marginally worse at driving directly forward than using omnis in the rear and using tank drive (that is, linking the front and rear wheels on each side).
Without strafe capability, I don't see an advantage that justifies the two extra drive trains.
