Just when you think the crab module can't get any better... someone goes and proves ya wrong...
Though... I do see some problems that need to be addressed...
1. What will keep the bevel gears together, other than gravity? Won't the drive shaft want to rise up?
2. Turning the crab module might be a bit difficult with 2 wheels. If the wheels don't slip much, this will put backdrive on the drive system (since the wheels will want to spin when rotating the module). Make sure the turning unit and/or drive system will tolerate it.
3. I see the power is transferred using chains mounted horizontally. Are you afraid at all of the chains falling off? Might want to consider a chain tensioning mechanism.
