Re: 2015: Mecanum or Slide?

Our team is definitely going mucanum drive this year. we thought about slide drive but thought this was a bad option as the center wheel would be the only contacting wheel when going over the scoring platform. Also we have an old mecanum robot that we were able to get driving today and found it had no problems going over the scoring platform. We even strapped 4 batteries to one end for a really bad weight distribution and did not see much change in the drive performance. We were quite surprised at this as we do not have a gyro or suspension on this old bot. We were so impressed that we are not even going to use a gyro or suspension this year for our robot.
