Re: pic: FRC 1771 jumping into the swerve game
Did you ever finish the wood frame for this? I remember you had it like half completed last I saw it.

Noooo Sean, not you tooo. But it looks very nice; I like the module and I agree with Aren.

Re: pic: FRC 1771 jumping into the swerve game
Thanks guys. I have had this one designed for at least 2 months now. It also can fit a 4" colson as is right now. The custom wheels is much much lighter though. I believe the wheel pictured is right at .2 lbs.
RC...dont worry. I have no intention at all of using this during a season. It was more a study of how I could design a swerve to take advantage of our sheet metal capabilities and to do it as light as possible. You've seen the 6wd that I'm leaning towards Akash: I have a wood frame designed right now for it just as a mock up but it looks complete. I need to look more seriously into properly selecting the thickness of each piece of wood for the application and weight reduction of the frame. If I do single speed, I am pretty certain I could pull of this swerve right at 30 lbs. |

Re: pic: FRC 1771 jumping into the swerve game
Looks really good, nice and compact. One question though, it looks like it might be a little tough to get that cog belt on inside the module, dot you have a method for doing that?
I like the design though. Is this design intending to use cables for steering? That's really cool how it's all sheet metal, great work. |
