Re: pic: New swerve CAD from 2471

I'd be worried about the strength of using pocketed 1/8" wall tubing to support the weight of the robot and the forces from the wheels. Most swerves I've seen with a similar coaxial setup use 1/4" plate.

I like the originality of you module packaging, why did you choose to do it this way?

Why have the modules on the outside? It would seem like your frame would be stronger and you'd have more electronic placement space with the framerails on the outside.
