WildStang: Swerving up something new
For those who follow our blog, you would have seen back in early October that we were working on a special project as part of our fall semester class. We're now happy to present that to everyone.

No, that wasn't a typo in the title... WildStang has designed a new swerve module!

Moving away from our previous crab module design, this time we have a coaxial swerve module.



Full details, design iterations, and photos of the built modules are posted on our blog here. You'll also find CAD files (STEP and SolidWorks files), and assembly instructions. Software will follow later this week.

Feel free to ask anything.

And for those who will ask, here's a short video of some initial testing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z8kCgfIEhY
