2. Do parts break easily?
3. Are parts easy to replace? If one breaks, do you have to buy a new one?
4. Any other info you have on this, or videos of it in action?
Thanks in advance

1. I like the fact that the module is all in one. I bought 3 for testing this summer and I quite enjoy them.
2. I only had 1 part break break on me and that was due to my assembly error with the arbor press and a bearing.
3. Many of the components of the module can be purchased individually. For example I broke the housing in the press and was able to buy a new one for pretty cheap.
4. A couple of teams found success this year with a swerve and steer platform.
