| Neither, they are too complex and 4wd or 6wd will do the job |

Re: Mecanum or Swerve?
For us, the reason we wanted to build a swerve drive is that we had trouble with our 6wd drop center wheel this year, so we wanted something that would offer more mobility without suffering in traction. We also had considered getting the 221 modules at the beginning of the year, but decided that our ONE programmer was going to be busy enough so we would wait for the offseason. I am personally more and more convinced that we should do swerve, and that we should be able to mount our modules on the bottom of our frame from this year after we take the kit wheel brackets off. It is interesting how different teams use swerve then never use it agian, but I agree with whoever said that driver practice, and lots of it, is how to get comfortable, and therefore good, with swerve.
