Re: The Hardest Drive System To Program:
I think that all depends on how you program it and how much practice a driver has.

After 4 years of driving Team RUSH's robots, I'd like to consider myself to be a fairly competent chassis driver. That being said, I only had experience practicing and operating with 6wd. I only had one real chance to drive a swerve-based chassis. It was programmed with one stick controlling rotation and the other translation, and it was a completely different beast than standard 6wd. That being said, with more practice it's possible I would've been able to do just as much with swerve as a 6wd robot, but I wasn't since I hadn't practiced with it.
