Regardless, looks good! I'm seeing so many mechanum setups this year. Too bad they won't be any good on Jello...  |
It isn't too difficult to swap modules. I take out 4 bolts and slide in a new plate with gearbox and wheel mounted on it. You can also see it in
this photo. The problem comes in that the wheels and gearboxes are expensive.
I'm still trying to figure out good suspension materials as I mentioned in
this thread.

What would be cool if mecanums worked like spoked wheels. But unfortunately, I think they would slip and don't have enough height.
Thanks for the responses!
