After a decent amount of designing, octocanum can be somewhat light, our my teams octocanum is around 28 lbs (this includes frame, wheels, pistons, modules, gearboxes, and cims). I think 488's octocanum should be a bit lighter than that because they are using custom one stage gearboxes, plastic 4 inch mecanum wheels, and their metal for their modules are a bit thinner than ours so I can see this being around 25 lbs.
