Re: Questions about crab/swerve drive.
I'm seeing an awful lot of people jump on the swerve guru bandwagon recently, and I'd to say something about that.
Before you hand out advice that someone may take as 100% perfect, think for a moment, do I REALLY know what I'm talking about? Can someone take my words, act on them, and be satisfied with the results?
Successfully using a swerve this year was a challenge, but also one much less so than on carpet. Most swerve designs I have seen this year would probably result in severe damage to the modules/turning shafts if they had been used on carpet.
Since I doubt we'll be getting anything other than carpet, that's what a new crab should probably be designed around.
