Re: What type of drive train is the most maneuverable?
I definently agree with Lil' Lavery- The best bang for the buck if you're not concerned with lots of defence or complication will be the four wheel setup and omni's out front.
Six wheel is another excellent choice with a lowered center wheel- but it also requires more time, complication, and weight budget. However, it's nearly impossible to be spun sideways, or lose traction on inclines, bumpy ground, etc.
Mechanum and swerve are very impressive and capable designs when the game warrants them, but compared to standard drive-trains, a huge amount of design and fabrication muscle needs to go into them.
