Re: Chassis Design

The KOP frame won't work?

If it's minor modifications, start there. IIRC, there isn't a whole lot of modification needed to do mecanum.

Now all you have to do is keep everything low--that's why you put a big piece of plywood on the bottom to pile ballast on (like the battery, compressor, cRIO, PDB, motors...).
