Re: Bumpy Ride with AM's 8" Mecanum wheels?
When designing any mechanum drive it is important to account for vibrations. Our team used the 6" wheels on an offseason robot and have to give the robot a suspension system for proper driving. Short of that there is really not too much that can be done other than tightening down your bolts and hoping for the best.
