Re: pic: 2014 Offseason Drivetrain 2363 Triple Helix
Here's a thought - what's stopping you from having the omni wheel module straddle the drive tube? You could use some delrin blocks to transmit forces applied to the module through the whole frame, which keeps the loads more manageable. As long as you have clearance for the shaft to pivot within your drive tube (doable with chain-in-tube and the right geometry) you might like a setup like that better.
