Re: Swerve Drive Idea

the rule jspatz1 was mentioning that was clarified to us was R50

"<R50> Custom circuits shall NOT directly alter the power pathways between the battery, Power Distribution Board, speed controllers, relays, motors, or other elements of the robot control system (including the power pathways to other sensors or circuits). Custom high impedance voltage monitoring or low impedance current monitoring circuitry connected to the ROBOT’S electrical system is acceptable, because the effect on the ROBOT outputs should be inconsequential."

they just clarified that absolutely nothing besides the copper wires can be used. some members were confused with the clarification and thought of similar ideas, that were still illegal because they would violate the rule.
