Re: Hex Kiwi Drive
I might have missed someone saying this(correct me if they did), but a hexagonal robot would not be for pushing power. The design makes it easy to get out of being pinned. A perk to an omni wheel drivetrain is that if you know how to drive it well, then you can use another robot pushing you to your advantage. I know it's a different shaped chassis but team 33 in 2014 had a four omni wheel drivetrain. It wasn't omni directional unless another team applied the force to their side, and they used this to their advantage. (They won 2 districts, their district champs, and we're finalists in their division at worlds)
