Our team did independent swerve drive for the first time this year.
Thanks in advance.

Our swerve drive uses slip rings mounted at the top and we use 6" AndyMark performance wheels. I have some CAD models of our 2013 drive train if you'd like to see. Our output gear ratio is about 9.5:1 on the drive and for steering we use AM 9015s geared down using Versaplanetaries from VexPro (I'll have to figure out the gearing of that when I go to the shop later today). Here are some pictures of the model for a more visual approach. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Just send me a PM asking for the gear ratios for the steering and I'll try to get them to you as quickly as possible.
