I haven't tried it, but I guess triggers could work. I suppose it's just a matter of driver preference
For me, I prefer an independent twisting controller to rotate.


Ooh, that's pretty cool. Do you mind sharing how that works mathematically?


Hello, 2517 programmer here.

I made a presentation about the swerve mainly to show to judges, but it should work well enough here. It was meant to be accompanied by an oral presentation, so feel free to ask questions if things don't make sense. I'm planning on adding more code specific examples later as well.

Here are all the links:

Our actual code, sorry it's pretty messy at the moment:
