In addition, 2 gearboxes connected by chain may require more material.

Right now the center strafe is placed to be roughly under the center a gravity. One of the bars is a piece of c just so that i wasn't cantilevering the whole strafe mechanism. There is the option to do a lot of different ways to connect the modules to act as one but i will probably still stick with independently driven. I could use gearboxes and run chain and other similar ideas but that adds quite a bit to material weight and cost which all of which i was trying to minimize. In reality if this design is used and how it is used will depend quite a bit on the game.
