The proper way to advance forward is by bringing the bottom up, not by limiting how high the top can fly. - artdutra04 [more]

Re: 2015: Year of the Mecanum

Our team has had a good amount of experience with mecanums, and we haven't any big problems with bumps. We used them in 2010 (w/o suspension) and were able to climb over the bump, and also in 2012, where we were able to easily climb the bridge.

Based on that experience I think driving over the scoring area won't be a problem at all.
