Re: Cyber Blue 234 Swerve Video

Is that masking tape on the modules? If yes, is it for visual feedback, gearbox sealing....both?

Let this video be a testament to how much work it takes to build a successful swerve system. Even with an 80/20 chassis and off-the-shelf swerve modules, it still took months of development to get the system up and running.

The result of this hard work is obvious though.....smooth control and fewer problems.

Any teams that do decide to use Wild Swerve modules, or base their own designs on the concept will be much further ahead thanks to the great work of frc234 and frc111.

Awesome job. I can't wait to see it in person.
