Re: Pic: Easy to make mecanums..

Team 40 used these last year. The biggest thing I can stress is make sure the chassis is a square. If the chassis is rectangular you will have a difficult time turning. If you check out checkmate40.com we have some video's of the robot running. It looks like its floating when it drives but doesn't stand up well to being pushed.

Bottom line, if you are looking for a robot that will push well or stand up well to being pushed you are looking at the wrong type of wheel. See the 6 wheel drive thread.

We do not plan to use them again this year unless the game dictates we should.
