Re: Swerve drives
Swerve is something I've wanted to build in the offseason for a while. I understand the mechanical and control concept of it and I know how it's driven and mostly how the modules need to be constructed.
The point that I have a really hard time understanding is how the pivot is set up. Does it just ride metal on metal? Or is there some sort of bearings, rollers, or slip pads/blocks? How do you contain the rotating module (the yoke) up and down and side-to-side while still being able to disassemble it? No one seems to have any good cross section views of the modules in an assembled state.
