2010 - BREAKAWAY

This robot brought a new innovation to the TorBots. It was our first and only robot to use Mecanum drive. This drive train utilizes special wheels that, when rotated a certain way, allow the robot to move from side to side. Unfortunately, it also has quite a few disadvantages, mainly being that it requires a lot of adjustments to work properly so it would be the last time we used a Mecanum drivetrain.
