New Vex Mecanum

[Aren_Hill]

All, the testing we completed with the 6" mecanums was fairly simple, four wheels, properly oriented, test bed weighed up to 150lbs (max robot with batteries and bumpers), and then handed to a High school intern who has no regard for the safety and well being of the wheels.
He was then told "break these" and came back after several hours of driving with the rubber worn off the rollers, no broken tabs.

I later found out his testing included driving around on sidewalks and over significant bumps and door jams, in addition to running around on FRC carpet.

Note, we are also working on specific testing on the current field with additional weight for the game pieces, we expect positive results given the previous testing described above.

Hope this answers your questions,
