Re: Drive Train Prototype

Darn it! You guys beat me to it.
I've been playing around with this idea in my head for awhile now, though it's great to see someone actually build it.
Ok question time.
Is there a reason as to why you decided to have the mechanums on the outside instead of the inside?
Did you guys play around with any other configuration ideas, such as having all 8 of the wheels on the ground at once?

Great work, make sure to run some good tests on it and let us know what you find!
