Re: Omni Wheels and Carpeted Playing Field?

Team 1533 used a six-wheel chassis last year (all six wheels driven), traction wheels in the middle and AM omnis on the corners. What we also did to smooth out the ride is pair up two omnis with the rollers offset in each corner. That setup worked really well for us. I think you'll be pleased with how they do.
