What drive train will you use? Our team was thinking of using a transitional drive train, similar to the one Chief Delphi (47) used last year. Its pretty cool and from what i've heard not that hard to program.

It is easy to program... ...once you think things through. We have spent a lot of time getting not only the software thunk through but the human interface as well.

Welcome to the swerve club.

I remember hearing about this last year, but I never got a chance to see it. What is the swerve drive?

we noticed just how cool this was at the New York Regionals when we were pitted next to Chief Delphi and thier amazing team. I was wondering how much this cost to make. Last year we joked that Chief Delphi's drive train cost 2 times more than our whole robot to build.:confused:
