These assembled units aren't necessarily targeted to FRC. Revolution modules are popular for FRC, but these complete units are generally sold in the off-season or in other hobby markets.

We just like to share. CAD pictures are cool, but hardware in hand is cooler.
Wow, that's a lot of cash.
You could make it work with a 3-wheel swerve I think. But that's still $2100 without encoders.

I love swerve but they are resource hogs.

I think that this is great for off-season and practice robots. When it comes to the competition robot, teams may have to make a lot of the components themselves in order to meet the $4K limit.
