Re: pic: Jester Drive:Mecanum Wheel Drive Train
You're completely right... I thought he was referring to omni wheels set in the same frame as our mecanum wheels. In fact, we were encouraged early on to try using the 45 degree omni-wheel set-up because of the complexities of the mecanum drive system. However, there is a disadvantage in the 45 degree omni-wheel drive train when it comes to driving over obstacles. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the set-up also has a harder time adapting to different surfaces.
Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I'll be answering questions more quickly more often.
