Omni Directional Wheels

Use the Mecanum Wheels to add omni-directional capabilities to your robot.What can they do? The four Mecanum wheels are each connected to a separate motor with independent control. The robot can move forward, backward and turn just like it would with four regular wheels. The configuration of rollers at 45 degrees also allows the robot to translate sideways, and through a combination of movements, drive in any direction - even while spinning! How do they work?

This RC mixer is designed for four wheeled omni-directional robots. It mixes three input RC channels: x, y, and spin to generate the appropriate signals for motors controlling four omni-directional wheels. Using a jumper on the board, the OMX-4 can be configured for either an ‘X' style drivetrain or a ‘Plus' style drivetrain.FEATURES- 4 wheel omni-directional mixing with translation and rotation input- Failsafe on signal loss- No need for line boosters when used with VEX / IFI speed...
