swerve drive kit
 

First time using swerve drive. Does anyone know where one could buy a kit. I had trouble finding one in kit firm on andymark. Any ideas or links. Thanks for your time

I would highly recommend against starting swerve drive mid-season. Do it offseason and use something else for now. If you've never done it before, the challenges presented by swerve will not compete with the benefits.
That being said, 221 sells some semi-complete swerve drive kits.

We sell two varieties of swerve/crab...

The Revolution module itself is sold assembled. All other products come in kit form.

Swerve drive is a major undertaking and there is not that much of an upside to it i don't think to make it all worth the work. We built a Wild Swerve during the fall and it took many more weeks then expected to finish mechanically and were unable to get the code to work in the limited time. We probably are on the middle of teams when it comes to resources so that may have been why. I'd recommend you build it right after season and then most of the code etc. would be transferable during the build season of 2016

There's no doubt that swerve can be a big challenge.

You'd take a bit of a gamble on when they'll come in stock, though
