Re: pic: Side view of third try drive.

Okay, I'm confused about something (trust me, this isn't an unusual condition): The advantage of mecanum is that you can make the bot go sideways by rotating front and back wheels in different directions. If you chain them together by tying them to the middle wheel, aren't you defeating this potential?
