Re: Holonomic vs Mecanum Help!!

I'm not really sure what your main question is. Using four Mecanum wheels gives you a holonomic drive base, so there's no "holonomic vs. Mecanum" issue in the first place.

Some of your other questions seem to assume something that I'm not aware of. You can make Mecanum wheels using whatever material you want for the rollers. Rubber is great for traction on carpet.

Mecanum drive doesn't necessarily have less power in the sideways direction compared to forward. It depends on how much friction there is on the small rollers.
