Thanks for all the help!
I feel I need to clarify a few things:
1. The Mecanum Drive is only one of three driving methods our team is testing before the kickoff. We will decide which one to use after deciding the strategy.
2. Note that overseas shipping will be involved (to Israel).
Nevertheless, all the things said will be taken into consideration when deciding this year's drive method.
Thanks again!
