Re: Any pictures for Centered 2-Wheel Drive?

We are currently just finishing up the build on a robot similar to what you describe. It has 4 omni wheels, one on each corner that are unpowered (although they could be powered) Then in the middle, there are 2 NPC gear motors that have a dual output shaft (shaft goes al the way through the motor and goes out both sides) There is a wheel on each side of each motor making for 4 powered wheels in the dead center of the robot all on the same axis. Anyway, it drives pretty good and turns like a spinning top. It is amazing how maneuverable that thing is. Sorry I have no pic.

Re: Any pictures for Centered 2-Wheel Drive?

our (60) 2004 design was a little different, but I think it does the same thing. It had six wheels with the two center wheels being 3/16 of an inch lower than the other four. It was very maneuverable and reliable. If you want to check it out, look at http://www.team60.com (I don't have a direct link)
