Why, if I may ask?
just didnt fit the strategy, that nice wide glorious pickup wouldn't be there if we had swerve modules. Plus if we wanna "strafe" all thats needed is a running start.
This was also the first year we've held ourselves to KISS, and it worked.
My favorite part is, this robots concept was decided at the end of day 2 of build season, and at the end of week one we had 2 welded chassis's ready to roll.


And as far as the banebots, we've almost never had issues with the transmissions, (only used the 42mm variety) just the motors have been shotty IMO, that RS550 last year is the reason we went to colorado
