Re: Can Mecanum wheels pass the scoring zone?
A team we share space with tried driving over HDPE with a mecanum drive. It could drive straight forward with no trouble, and strafing over it wasn't bad either. The main issue had nothing to do with friction: if the drive train went over diagonally, the bump lifted two of the wheels off of the ground, and they could only get off again by flailing around with the wheels.
