Re: To Strafe or not to Strafe

We miscalculated on the amount of defense last year, and went mecanum. Our programmers got mecanum working from the libraries in about two weeks from a cold start. We're going omni H-drive this year - we're doing a "bottom stacker", and feel that a bit of strafing is going to be essential to quickly and precisely line up on the totes. We decided to pass on mecanum this year because of the issues with a moving center of gravity.
