Re: pic: Team 221 LLC. - Wild Swerve Module

Nice product, I hope it has the chance to make it onto some FRC robots in the future!

We're one of those teams that doesn't really have enough resources to manufacture our own swerve modules. I'm sure there are other teams like us that would jump on the chance to build a swerve system now that most of the difficult manufacturing is out of the way. There is still way (waaaay) more work to go into a successful swerve drive of course, but it's nice to have one of the tough to build parts readily available.

Our drivetrains have been slowly getting simpler and easier to build over the years, so I doubt we are likely to purchase some of these. It's great that they're finally out there, though.
