Re: AM14U3 chassis with mecanum wheels?

As another option, either to use the gearboxes you already have or to make space for an intake, you could do the wheels at one end as suggested by AndyMark, and run the others from a TB-mini mounted in the usual fashion at the center of the robot, then come forward on belts or chain. I saw several robots in 2015 with this setup.
