Re: pic: 2016 OFF-SEASON SWERVE CONCEPT

Hey! This looks great! Might I offer a word of caution? The inverted bag motor and gearbox caused my team a ton of trouble in Recycle Rush. We used them on the manipulators and we had to replace them constantly. They worked great almost any other orientation though. Although if you have them placed in an area of low vibration/impact you might be fine, or if you add a shaft coupler you may avoid this. Shout out to your drafting team, this looks great!
