Re: Mecanum wheels friction coeff- will it work?
Well, after putting some more thought into it, Kevin's answer for the coefficient issue seems to be the right one.
It seems that our team will use mecanum wheels as a drive base this year, and so we wanted to ask 2848 some more questions.
First, in the video (http://www.youtube.com/user/SteveJes.../1/UQQ67SB8Acc) your robot uses different wheel brackets then the one given in the KOP. Is there any special reason for that?
Second, you didn't use the Thoughtbox from the KOP. Why did you change the gear?

Thanks again,
Guy,
