Are there any Meccanum wheels available to FRC teams that would be big enough to possibly make this work? I think the biggest AM sells is 8 inch right?

I think it's BYOMW (Build Your Own Mecanum Wheels) for that challenge. 2826 might be able to do it--they built an offseason robot last year with massive ones. Even that one would have trouble strafing onto the platform, though--for a (best-guess) 14-inch diameter wheel, the roller tips still look to be about 1/2 inch off the ground.
