What about 116's beautiful implementation of camber (I think that would fit the definition)? They used an extreme angle for their 4 omni wheels in two axis per wheel making the point of the omni in contact with the ground closer to the corners of the physical machine thus providing a much greater footprint for their wheelbase.

I know the middle wheel drop has been established as the thread's intent. I just thought I would throw this out there.
