Re: Effective Drive Base
that is a concern my team will have when we have the drive base argument. we built our first mechanum base this year in off season. so we are fairly new to exotic drive systems.

a big factor with a swerve drive though is that is a lot of weight added to your robot. the more weight you have on the robot the riskier it will be to drive over the bumps.

im really interested to see how teams approach this challenge.
