Re: pic: 6in Butterfly Module With Piston

Back on topic and not debating the pros/cons of butterfly vs. mecanum, I have to agree with pmangels somewhat that cantilevering the module sounds quite risky.
I think this would have to be paired with some bulletproof bumpers or an outside rail in order to work super well.

That being said, I love what you're trying to do, and I really wanna see it work.
