See, that is the interesting part. We never received four CIM motors before so I'm guessing this is a little more than just a mock-up. I have a feeling your actual robot will look more like this than you'd want us to know.

Anyway, you appear to have a worm gear drive for the CIM motor on each wheel. Could you please explain why you think being non-backdriveable is important and also why you are settling for a lower efficiency? Thanks.
