With COTS parts we built it in a week. Perfecting the programming took a little longer. However, we never got much drive practice (our portable is very small).

If you want to go swerve, prototype in the off season so that people can learn how to drive it. Swerve is very different from anything else.

I know that much, I was jut asking for purposes of reference as to how long some drive systems take. I'm guessing that custom designed ones take even longer (if you haven't gotten it down to a science like some teams).
