I figure if we actually build this I'll go with 90:1. The Robostangs' off-season swerve had the same steering setup but they used 50:1 (which I thought was surprisingly low when compared to something like the AndyMark Swerve & Steer module, but they said it worked well for them). I think you'd need something like 120:1 in order to match the steering RPM of the AndyMark module, but I didn't want a 3rd VersaPlanetary stage because I felt that put the BAG motor too close to the ground.
