Chainless Mecanum Drive

Our main reason for trying them now is so that we have experience with them if we decide to use them for the FRC season. We bought them last year but decided not to use them for FRC because we didn't have any experience with them and we didn't think they would work well on the ramp. We want to learn how to use them because they are one of the most manueverable drive trains. From what I saw at the Portland regional last year the teams that used them were able to position themselves very well with the ball and goal and ended up doing pretty good. Basically, we think that they could be advantagous in this years competition and we want to be able to use them if they are.
