Re: Mecanum wheels friction coeff- will it work?

Having done the calculations, and real world testing, Team 1716 has found that the 8" mecanum wheels will successfuly go over the hump. Unfortunatly we did have to modify the KOP wheel brackets. Once that had been accomplished, we had no problems!

Happy Building
