Re: Disadvantages of swerve/crab

It did what seemed liked a small change between input and movement sometimes, but later on that was fixed. The delay later on was, to me, significant because I did not know what to expect. It was just not instant as we all wanted, and I think this also happens to a lot of people when they first try swerve. The team might be under the impression that they'll get prefect turning and response from the get-go. However, with optimized systems such as 973, 111, 16, I suspect they see the kinds of results we expected: instant response (or close to).

As for the gearing, I'd have to go back to the CAD as I don't recall. The CAD should be somewhere on the Autodesk website from 2010 if they still archive that stuff.
