Re: Non-marking wheels
We've built some kiwis with Vex omnis. They did mark the floor. Basically they'd leave tracks whenever wheels were skidding. On one of the robots was built with 4" wheels and enough torque to spin the wheels from a dead stop so that one tended to leave a lot of marks. The other one was built with 6" wheels and didn't have enough torque to spin the wheels when stopped so it tended to leave fewer marks. These were our 2014 and 2013 competition robots.
