Re: swerve drive kit

Swerve drive is a major undertaking and there is not that much of an upside to it i don't think to make it all worth the work. We built a Wild Swerve during the fall and it took many more weeks then expected to finish mechanically and were unable to get the code to work in the limited time. We probably are on the middle of teams when it comes to resources so that may have been why. I'd recommend you build it right after season and then most of the code etc. would be transferable during the build season of 2016
