Re: Swerve Drivetrain.
We have done Right/Left Power split, Front/Back turning. It allows translation in any direction, good turning ability, on the spot rotation like a tank drive, and leaves the middle open for a manipulator.

We have also done all 4 powered together, Front/Back turning. Simple to control, difficult to chain up.

I would recommend Right/Left Power, Front/Back turning.
