Mechanum Wheels?

It's like saying even though the motor controller is already set to 100%, the code can be improved to set it to 110% via "better controls". That doesn't happen.

We don't use mecanums. Never have. The point they made was in order to have the best quality controls for the drivers and have the driving experience be the most controllable and intuitive that our drivers can have, more complex programming would be required for mecanums compared to the traditional tank drive.

That's that, let's not derail this thread further.
