Drivetrain

Vibra-TITE VC-3 Threadmate (Vibra-TITE) is recommended on all bolts that thread into a tapped hole.

Step 1

Refer back to the Swerve X2 Manual to build the two Right and two Left configurations of the Tube Mount X2c modules.

Ensure that two Left-Hand and two Right-Hand modules are assembled

Step 2

Install Tube Plugs into all of the Drivetrain tubing as shown below using #10-32 x 3/8"L Bolts.

Install a 2" x 1" Tube Plug into each end of the 25.5"L Drive Rails using #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts as shown below. Additional bolts will be added in later assembly steps.

The highlighted holes on the Tube Plug must be drilled out to 0.201".

Drilling these holes allows the frame to be bolted together without threading a bolt through multiple Tube Plugs, removing the risk of cross-threading.

Step 3

Bolt together the Crossbar Support Tubes from Step 2 using #10-32 x 1-1/4"L bolts as shown below.

Step 4

Bolt together the Drivetrain tubes from Step 2 to the assembly from Step 3 using #10-32 x 1-1/4"L bolts as shown below.

If the 2" x 1" Tube Plug holes on the 25.5"L drivetrain rails were not drilled out in Step 2, return to that step and drill out the selected holes before bolting the frame together.

Step 5

Install the modified 90 Degree Corner gussets using #10-32 x 3/8"L bolts as shown below.

Step 6

Bolt the Belly Pan to the Bottom of the assembled Drivetrain

Rivet the Belly Pan to the Bottom of the assembled Drivetrain from Step 3 using .250" - .438" Grip Length, 3/16" Rivets (WCP-0450)

Step 7

Use this step to mount your desired electronics.

The images below can be used ONLY IF THE SAME ELECTRONICS are used.

Mount the Pigeon 2.0 to the Pigeon Mounting Plate using #4-40 x 1/2"L bolts. (McMaster P/N 91251A110)

Teams can choose to not tap the Pigeon Mounting plate and rather drill the holes to 1/8". If this is done a #4-40 x 3/4"L bolt (McMaster P/N 91251A113) and #4-40 Nut (McMaster P/N 90631A005) can be used to mount the Pigeon.
