What's most interesting, though, is the shaft coupler on the third stage next to the golden colored gear, and the sprockets on the fifth stage. The sprockets makes me think its used to connect 2 gearboxes on each side of the drive train together so they share the power. But that's just a theory.
I cannot easily see the shaft coupler on the first picture, so I am not sure if it's on the table or not. If it is indeed on the gearbox, it makes me think you are doing something else with the motors beside just the drive train. As to what, I cannot tell.
Different angle of the gear box would be very nice. Very cool :-)
