Re: swerve sketch

To explain that image above, the big sprocket on top is used to turn the whole module, while the shaft with the arrows is what is turned to make the wheel move (through some right-angle gears and, in this case, a chain). That shaft is co-axially mounted (on bearings) to the module, so the sprocket and the shaft spin independently from each other.
