Re: Disadvantages of swerve/crab
As has been said earlier, driver practice is the main bump in the road (so to speak). If you plan on building a swerve drive, prototype it in the offseason. We didn't, so even though our swerve worked perfectly, we modified it to drive like a tank.
As with everything, practice makes perfect.
I wish you luck if you decide to go for it. It's one of the coolest drive systems out there.
