Re: Mecanum Drive Killing Battery

I don't know how you found out about this, but it isn't true unless the battery is faulty. 4 CIMs in the drive should last all match and then some on one battery, and throw in other motors and a compressor for good measure. One match shouldn't drain the battery.

We ran one in 2005 as a test, and never had an issue with the battery.
