Re: Macanum ability to climb ramps

I can think of two mecanum drives that could do it. 1322 has been playing with one that is specifically designed to climb ramps for a couple of years now: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/32185

2826 has a slightly different method that may be more practical: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/34306
