Wheels Mecanum wheels allow for multidirectional movement without turning No reputable sources on difference in power consumption Same force and velocity as standard wheel Traction may be an issue in either case Mecanum wheels remove issue of reorienting targeting system during line following

Microcontroller We recommend the Arduino Mega or Due Both more robust than Uno Mega has higher operating voltage (5v) compared to Due (3.3v) Due has more on board memory (512 Kb) as opposed to Mega (128 Kb) Plenty of I0 Pins (12 PWM for Due and 15 PWM for Mega)

Batteries High quality rechargeable batteries are preferred for high drain devices More likely to provide advertised output We recommend 7.4 Volt, 2100 mAh RC batteries More than enough voltage and current for the competition limits

Servos/Motors Good quality servos are a must Light, quick acceleration, smooth operation and faster response time
