Re: pic: Team 221 LLC. - Wild Swerve Module

Silly thought: Imagine someone taking these modules, stripping off the swervy bits, and using it as an ultra-compact drive module in some other application. It probably wouldn't replace that 6WD setup most of us have sitting around for most strategies of play, but I bet we've all wanted the extra ground-level real estate at some point or another.

We actually did something similar to what I think you're talking about. I shall picture hunt....

Each of those 4 drive modules is just bolted on in about a minute each. You could potentially raise and lower the modules depending on how you design it. Am I on the same page here?
