What is the shaft made out of? What about the contact rings?
The shaft is made out of G10-Garolite which is an insulator, and the contact rings are made out of Alloy 932 Bronze.

After looking at the picture for a while, I understand why you would want to use two brush assemblies, but the color coding on your wires is a bit misleading, no?
We agree that for it to be competition legal, we would have to change the coloring on the wire.

Seems like a lot of weight and space allocation for an electrical connection.
The module only weighs .75lbs and is L 3, W 4.5, H 5.

Quote:
If you do run this as part of a swerve, would the two radial bearings on the top and bottom of the shaft take the weight of the robot, or does this assembly go on top of other bearings that supported the robot?
It would be mounted on a structural piece of frame and the shaft would be connected to the swerve module by a flexible hose.
