WCP’s newest generation of the swerve drive module, designed from the ground up to utilize the powerful Kraken X60 brushless motor to improve performance and remove complexity. This new design more versatile than our previous modules, and truly makes omnidirectional driving as simple as plug and play.
Supports 4" OD x 2" wide wheels
3 variants available: Standard, Inverted, and Thin
Corner and Tube Mount versions available for each option
On axis encoder mounting
Aluminum and Steel gears available for all gears
Single bolt removal for wheel swap
Motors easily replaced without module disassembly
Accepts common motors
Less parts than previous versions
No belts in any of the modules
All weights for configurations were calculated without any motors.
Corner Mount module weights do not include the weight for either the Top Support Plate or the Bottom Support Plate.
Configuration | Steel Gears | Aluminum Gears |
---|---|---|
Standard | 3.821 lbs | 3.254 lbs |
Inverted | 4.146 lbs | 3.378 lbs |
Thin | 4.321 lbs | 3.524 lbs |
Weight calculated using the Aluminum Wheel and Tread.
Configuration | Steel Gears | Aluminum Gears |
---|---|---|
Standard | 3.841 lbs | 3.274 lbs |
Inverted | 4.166 lbs | 3.398 lbs |
Thin | 4.341 lbs | 3.544 lbs |
The X gear ratios are designed to be a consistent spread across all Swerve X2 configs. All X Gear Ratios come with 3 pinions on the same pitch to get the spread.
The Rotation Ratio is the same throughout all motor configurations using the 10t pinions, which is compatible with all motors. The overall rotation gear ratio will be 12.1:1

WCP’s newest generation of the compact swerve drive module, designed from the ground up to utilize the powerful Kraken X60 brushless motor for drive, and the compact Kraken X44 brushless motor for steering. This new design is more versatile than our previous compact module, and strikes an ideal balance between performance, size, weight, and cost.
Less hardware required for assembly.
Module accept multiple motors: Kraken X60 - Kraken X44 - NEO - Vortex.
2 variants available: Standard and Thin
Wide drive base footprint.
Optimizes the robot's layout for efficient drivetrain component layouts.
Lightweight and compact design.
On axis encoder mounting with the new WCP ThroughBore Powered by CANcoder
The newest generation of our swerve drive module, designed from the ground up to utilize the powerful Kraken X60 brushless motor to improve performance and remove complexity. This new design is smaller, lighter, and more versatile than our previous module, and truly makes omnidirectional driving as simple as plug and play.
Modules accept multiple motors: Kraken X60 - 775pro - 550 motors.
Natively supports CAN and Mag Encoder
Alignment holes to zero module.
Clearance holes so motors can be removed without disassembling gearbox.
Easy to install encoder locations
Flipped and Non Flipped option
Wheel height is the same regardless of configuration, so it is possible to mix and match modules on robot.
All weights for configurations were calculated without any motors.
Corner Mount module weights do not include the weight for either the Top Support Plate or the Bottom Support Plate.
