Re: pic: Swerve Module Concept (View 1)

It would. I have tried to make the module as short as possible to reduce the length of the arm that would be applying force to the frame. It is my belief that worst case scenario would be being pushed when the wheels are facing perpendicular to the direction of the pushing. My biggest concern was breaking the wheel or bending the casing. To address this problem I chose to use the AM traction wheels with a custom hub, and use pocketing to reduce as much weight instead of cutting through the entire wall.
