Re: The Hardest Drive System To Program:

Is swerve supposed to be more difficult than Mecanum to drive?

I don't see how it could be that difficult from the drivers perspective. We have a mecanum robot, and our driver did fine even though he had to deal with reversed controls for our first matches and was controlling all the robots functions. After that was fixed we didn't have any difficulty driving. I am trying to figure out what you mean by difficult. is there something that swerve has that makes it more difficult than mecanum.

Also our driver had no real prior practice with mecanum.
