FTC Swerve Competition · 2026

I wanna pay for your swerve.

Why swerve

Turn your CAD into a real drivetrain.

I love swerve.

It is one of the most interesting engineering challenges in FTC—and melonbotics already makes products for it, from Super Servos and encoders to Swerve Tyres.

So, I want to help a few teams turn their designs into real drivetrains.

Selected teams
Four-module build Get the melonbotics components you need to complete the build—free.
Make it work
A$300 Additional melonbotics store credit when you complete the build.
Application window
Applications open 23 July and close 9 August 2026.

How it works

CAD. Build. Prove it.

No pitch deck. Show us the engineering and the plan to make it real.

  1. Send the design

    Submit a mostly finished swerve design that your team believes will work.

  2. Build four modules

    If selected, we supply the melonbotics components in your approved BOM for one complete four-module drivetrain.

  3. Show us it works

    Share a clear look at the finished drivetrain, along with photos, video, or design material we can use to showcase your team’s work. Your team receives another A$300 in melonbotics season credit.
