Go to Post ...the list of the things we want to get done in the off-season has grown to such a length that I have to take off my shoes and socks to count them...and I think I may need to grow a few more toes soon. - StephLee [more]

Re: pic: 2015 Off-season Single Speed Coaxial Swerve Chassis

That's the practical point of coaxial - the motor cases are stationary relative to the chassis. Coaxial swerve means that at some point, the steering bearings and the drive axle bearings have the same axis. The far more common configuration is similar to this, where the drive axle goes through the steering bearing.

Also, the wheels look to be 4" diameter, based on a 2.5" diameter CIM.
To add to this, the purpose of going coaxial is usually to prevent wires from being tangled; in a non-coaxial swerve, the motor turns with the module, so a 360* turn would be a full twist of the wires.
