Who is going to worlds, has a swerve drivetrain and is willing to share information and talk to us?

We are not technically qualified yet, but we are reasonably sure we will make it to Worlds after this weekend. Stop by team #246's pit and we'll talk about our experience with Wild Swerves from 221 Robotic Systems, which was very positive.

We built Rover in the fall and used that as a coding platform for developing our Swerve Coding Skills. We literally could not have done swerve on this year's robot without that fall practice project.

Cheers,
