I'm almost certain we won't run a swerve drive in 2014. It's heavy and machining and software intensive for little performance gain over a simple 6WD. This season, we want to build a simple, elegant effective robot quickly and have plenty of time to work on the practice robot, software and driver practice. It would take our team about a week extra to make a swerve drive, a week we can't afford to lose. We might build a prototype the next off-season, though.
