148 and 217 built a "nonadrive" in 2010--in fact, they collaborated on it. The butterfly was omnis and traction, and a 5th omni was mounted perpendicularly to the rest of the drivetrain (for sideways motion).
I was considering nonadrive as a different drive because of the 5th omni, they did not run the drive that everyone now calls butterfly drive until 2011.
