Looks interesting. The inverted cylinders look like a good idea to save space, and if they're cheaper than $40 for a Vex cylinder, go for it! I think 192 did something similar last year.
The little connector plate is also nifty. Saves you the trouble of using those big Vex/AM ones for sure.
Agree that you need to surround the little 3/4" CIM pilot boss completely. Furthermore, I've heard it's good to have material all around the face of the CIM to support it and stop it from flexing away.
