Re: crab drive vs. mecanum drive system

I'll be honest, I have nothing quantitative to share with you, but...A really good 6 wheel skid is hard to be beat. It's lighter than a swerve and if you look at the teams that do it really well, their performance really isn't that much worse if worse at all from a good swerve. Keep the driver in mind too, different drivers prefer different systems. Skid steer requires basic code, successful swerves require much more complex code, especially if you want it to be intuitive.
