 Don’t let the medals you win and the trophies on your mantel define who you are. Let it be the lives you’ve touched and the legacy you leave behind. - Sean Schuff [more] |

Re: Mecanum Drive Killing Battery
Our robot from last year ran 8" mecanums directly from 12.75:1 toughboxes (cantilevered shafts, two of which definitely experienced some side loading) along with an air compressor. That thing can run a battery down in 10-15 minutes if you drive it continuously and use the pneumatics enough to keep the air compressor running. Even in that situation, we weren't particularly close to running out of power in one match.
