Question about worm gears
I've seen a bunch of swerve drive this season from 118 to 1625 and I planning on CADing up my own but was wondering would worm gear be a good idea. Is it efficient and durably enough for drive train usage. Also wondering from teams that have already done swerve what is a weight i should be aiming for and what motor should I be using to turn the modules so I have easily enough torque but have optimum turning speed.
