Tribot swerve drivetrain

Most of all, I long to give others a chance to experience what I did with FIRST, to give people from my home town that opportunity, because FIRST really is that once in a lifetime opportunity that so many people dont get a chance to be a part of. It shouldnt be that way. - Jacqui Sutton [more]

I would guess that it would be fairly simple to add another motor (disclaimer I have never designed a swerve module). But I am not sure why you would want that extra torque. The way I have always veiwed the swerve driving style is to drive fast, and evade defense.
