What teams have desgined a 6 wheel drive system?

[Andrew]

Team 356 has used a six wheeled drive system (with suspension) in 2003 and in 2004. In 2003 we had chips and drills driving separate wheels (with the front wheels being chain driven from the center wheels powered by the drills). In 2004, all six wheels were independently driven (chips, drills, fps).

In 2003, the front suspension helped us keep all six wheels on the ramp and top of the platform when we were attempting to take the hill.

In 2004, the suspension helped us climb onto the two platforms. We generally had 4-6 wheels in contact with a surface at all times.
