Congrats on getting a working (mostly) system built in the fall! Start working out your code issues now, there is hardly any time for that come January 3rd. Best of luck!

It's also a function of the way their modules are designed. Going to a smaller wheel doesn't significantly decrease the size of their module or the footprint it takes up because they spin the entire CIM around. Opposed to modules like this (which I'm calling 118 style) which just have to have clearance for the wheel and requisite gearing.
