Re: Why is swerve so slow?

Something else to note swerve drives are typically heaver then a skid/west coast ect decreasing acceleration.

How does the mechanical efficiency of a swerve drive compare to that of other drives?
How much does Mechanical efficiency matter any way? Does removing a gear set or a chain really do that much?
