# Advanced Features
## Standard Features
### Motor Placement
The Standard version of the WCP Swerve X2 allows for three different Drive Motor placements.

### Motor Mounting
The Standard Swerve X2 configuration is designed with the drive and rotation motors mounted on a 5/8" aluminum motor spacer. This spacer pilots into the mounting plate, allowing the motors to be bolted on securely and removed without disassembling the module.
### Hardware
The Standard Swerve X2 configuration uses the least number of parts, making it the lightest of the X2 configurations. Its simplified design reduces weight and complexity while still providing full motor accessibility.
## Inverted Features
### ThroughBore Encoder
The Inverted configuration supports a keyed 1/2" hex shaft, providing a true 1/2" hex through-bore solution for accurate position sensing of the module.
### Design
The Inverted module is fully symmetrical, eliminating the need for left- or right-hand specific configurations. This makes inventory management simpler and reduces complexity during assembly.
### Simplified Motor Mounting
A combined motor mounting plate reduces the overall part count while streamlining the assembly process, making the inverted configuration lighter and easier to build compared to our legacy Swerve X Flipped Modules.
## Thin Features
### ThroughBore Encoder
The Thin configuration supports a keyed 1/2" hex shaft, providing a true 1/2" hex through-bore solution for accurate position sensing of the module.
### Design
The Swerve X2 Thin design uses flippable plates, allowing left- and right-hand modules to be built from the exact same parts. This reduces the need for unique hardware, simplifies inventory, and makes assembly more straightforward. All gears remain within the top plate and motor mounting plate profiles, creating a design that’s easier to package into a robot.
An additional bottom support plate reinforces the motor mounts, improving rigidity and durability. This added strength helps the module handle the stresses of competition with confidence.
## Compact Features
### ThroughBore Encoder
The Compact configuration supports a keyed 1/2" hex shaft, providing a true 1/2" hex through-bore solution for accurate position sensing of the module.
### Design
The Swerve X2 Compact design uses flippable plates, allowing left- and right-hand modules to be built from the exact same parts. This reduces the need for unique hardware, simplifies inventory, and makes assembly more straightforward. All gears remain within the top plate and motor mounting plate profiles, creating an even more compact design that’s easier to package into a robot.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.
## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.wcproducts.com/welcome/gearboxes/wcp-swerve-x2/overview-and-features/advanced-features.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
