Re: DiscoBots Omni Drive over Bump
To add light on some of the points made in this thread.
Our team has already tested a holonomic omni wheel setup.
As far as going over the bump, the problem we encountered was the transmissions/CIMS bottoming out at the top of the bump.
Raising it or using stilts such as the KOP AM ones raises the COG considerably and that's the route we didn't want to take.
We did additional testing on the 6 wheel setup that you folks proposed and the driver's loved the way they were able to maneuver around the field.
However, using the FP is a bad idea for the drive and we decided to scrap the idea and go now to plan B.
Plan B meaning moving away from omnis and drivetrain setup.
