Re: Good drivetrains observed

Omni-directional drives are possibly the worst idea for this year. Well, it was a good idea at the beginning but once you get to competition, it's not that great.

This game calls for a strong bot. Not a maneuverable bot. 6x6 seems to be the best idea this year. Although, turning is hindered a bit, how maneuverable of a bot do you need to be? This year is all about traction and being able to get up the ramp which is exactly what 6x6 gets you.
