Re: pic: 6 wheel drive with a suspension

This is an interesting concept, however what happens when the drive train tries to lateral sideways? The mecanum wheel vectors will cancel each other out but the omni vectors will put a rotation on the drive train.

I do like how the motors don't stick out into the middle of the drive train. Are those supposed to be worm, helical, or beveled spur gears?
