Re: Mecanum needs a flat floor

you do not need an flat even floor for mecanum wheels, yes a flat floor is ideal but the bumps in the field will be no problem for the mecanum wheels

I know that the wheels are slightly different (at least from our robot) and are alot bigger but check out http://www.airtrax.com/video/Obstacle_navigation.wmv that video from airtrax
