Re: Drivetrain First Thoughts?

What is everyone's opinions about a swerve drive for this year's challenge? You would have the maneuverability of a mechanum drive but also the traction of a tank drive. Is it a matter of difficulty when it comes to building and programming that prevents teams from using swerve drives or are there other reasons?
