Re: VEX Differential
If you're using tank style drive, three wheels on a side, then you can consider using the Vex omni-wheels in the fore and aft wheel positions. This will give you nearly the same tractive force while improving turning substantially.
In this configuration you can run with 1, 2, or 3 motors per side. The only problem with this solution is you're limited to using the small wheels that match the omni-wheel diameter. We haven't found a reasonable vex gear ratio to use the omnis with the larger Vex wheels.
