Re: Hex Kiwi Drive
i would definitely work on adding some gussets or other type of support between the drive rails and the upper frame. Looks like it only held on by 6 standoffs right now. Keep in mind all of the force of a defense hit goes into the bumpers, so you want that connection to be really strong.
Also, keep in mind pushing with omnis isn't very efficient. The major point of an omni directional drivetrain is to avoid collisions.
