Re: Omni Wheels Survey

Team 79 has been using omni "crab" drive for two years now. We have a very powerful robot and we can hold our own in a pushing match. One thing that we did last year to keep people from pushing us off the top of the ramp was have a lock down system. Just by pressing a button on our controls each wheel would turn in, so that they are all facing a different direction. And the wheels that we used had a lot of traction on the top platform. I think that omni drive is a very cool thing to have and work great if the game calls for it.
