Inexpensive crab module?
I'm looking to design a crab drive robot over the summer... on my own budget. That budget? A McDonald's check... *sigh* So... here's my question. Can somebody design a relatively cheap and innexpensive crab drive module? Or atleast give me ideas on what to use. The entire robot will be 28X28. I'll be using 4" diameter wheels. I don't know what kind of wheels to use. If anyone can provide me a link to innexpensive wheels that'd be great. Also be using drill motors geared down for the drive... b/c I can get them very cheap. So... if anyone needs any more information then ask. I know I probably didn't provide enough info but it's the best I can do on what I know.

PS - I would ask some of the engineers on my team to help but they are mostly on vacation for a few months from robotics.
