After Discussion between Andrew and I, we've come up with what we think is the best way to approach this cast.

~15 Minutes talking with Dr. Joe about the History of FRC Drives.
~15 Minutes talking with Aren Hill, Dr. Joe and Adam about Swerve Drives (Arguably the most advanced drive in FRC)
~15 Minutes talking with those on the call about 'standard' FRC drives - Dropped Center 6WD's and 8WD's.
~15 Minutes talking about the advantages of an omni-directional drive vs a standard skid steer and the inverse.

The Rest of the time will be spent discussing good practices for FRC Drive Design. What wheels to use where & when, what speed to gear for, appropriate offset, wheel size vs. obstacles, proper material utilization etc. (Many of the questions asked in this thread should be answered here).

From there, Andrew and I will be doing 15 minute mini-casts with a few different guests as we find them to go more in depth on various drive types - if there is interest in these mini-casts. (Drive types being Mecanum, Killough, Kiwi, Octocanum, 4WD, etc.)

Thoughts?
