Here are some pictures of the guts.






We copied the basic geometry from the latest 221 revolution pro and added the lower support similar to wild swerve.

Didn't have any 3/8" hex bearings so we made a 1/2" hex to 3/8" hex shaft.

If other portions of the robot hadn't taken up so much time, I'm sure we would have used it. Unfortunately, there's a lot of negativity on these forums regarding designing a swerve drive in a build season So expectations were slim and we went with omniwheels. This was made in the first 2 weeks with very little effort, maybe 10 hours, while we focused on other prototypes.
