Re: pic: off season chassis

From the video, it looks like most of the weight is on the back, and the robot is acting like a 4 WD, with the omni's being the "front" wheels. The other "front" wheels do not appear to be in contact with the surface.

When it spins, it is turning around a center somewhere between the back and middle wheels - hard to tell by just doing stop frames on the video.

As others said - try it on carpet. The carpet will give a little and absorb the wheels, whick may allow all 6 to have some surface contact.
