Mecanum or 6WD - Chief Delphi

The question is like asking "Is it better to drive by looking at a map the whole time or by remembering where you want to go and watching the road instead?" - lukevanoort [more]

Re: Mecanum or 6WD

From what I have seen with the 2007 challenge, 6WD really doesn't suffer from as large of a disadvantage as some people state. As said above you have a large margin of error when placing the tube just because of the width of the rack. Also, most of the maneuverability issues can be minimized with a well designed arm and a proficient driver.
