Re: pic: Small CIM in wheel swerve

4.6lbs per module? I think you've finally made a swerve that can be lighter than a WCD.
Much applause.
Is the two-plate design lighter than just flipping the motor over and using a planetary gearbox?

EDIT: Is that a custom gear on the bottom?

DOUBLEEDIT: Oh wait, MiniCIM. Dang, that was almost the dream.
