VEX Remote-controlled Swerve Drive Robot

[@bobrosso9147]

I'm trying to convince the local FRC team to try this type of drive

[@hectornuno7306]

Hello, I am wondering how did you code this robot?

[@mf_01]

you could do this with one motor for the turning, so 5 total. I think. You might only be able to turn one set of wheels without serious engineering

[@phi_meson]

Well, that would make it crab drive, not swerve drive. The key difference is that swerve drive requires each wheel to tilt independently to allow complex maneuvers like more efficient turns and stuff of that nature; crab drive can only move left, right, up, and down but cannot turn while doing so.

[@SertEngineering]

Good job. Why did you stop posting videos.

[@rakibulchowdhury5400]

Why not use mecanum wheels?

[@brandonyoung2766]

Do you need robotC to make robots like that?
How can I get started on vex edr relatively cheaply?

[@jamchan3101]

Brandon Young join a team near you

[@brandonyoung2766]

There aren't any :(

[@jamchan3101]

ya, it's expensive to start a team. more so for the parts. ~$500 for basic parts. it's only $50-75 per team entering a comepetion though.

+Brandon Young I made a team with four of my friends this year, we all had to pitch in 200+ dollars and thats just for the basics. Joining any form of team near you is so much cheaper

[@brandonyoung2766]

RawSauce338 Our school does FRC.. So I will do that! =D

[@jigarsuthar8750]

what have you used for feedback?

[@XpertiCON]

How did you install the wheels so it rotates freely?

[@forMakers]

멋지네요 영상잘보고 갑니다^^

[@athomeinventions7266]

really cool but just get 4 omni wheels with tank control and a 5th wheel to strafe. same function, less motors

[@kirbyfu2615]

you could do that, but then you would only have one motor to strafe whereas this has 4. Also you could do this with only five motors

[@moose17m84]

You could do x drive and only have 4 motors

[@alexcantu747]

Would be so much better with omni wheels

[@trevinsmall]

Uhhh all swerve drives are made with traction wheels...

[@jasongrabowski920]

Can you please send me directions

[@thespidercrab9012]

Can you help me make a wheelchair size one of these??!!

[@tarank.5817]

i want a fruit fly

[@SuperCrazyWacko]

how much weight can this base support?

[@nhj06]

Thats gonna be a fast bot but it uses 8 motors and there are only 10 ports!!!

Much wow
