So, either turning swerve modules (seems a bit excessive) or some sort of arm? I might be a bit off on the tooth counts (hopefully not too far) but whatever the exact number is, that is one heck of a reduction.

I agree with the torque concerns...
But how can you test something like that...the only thing I know of is COSMOS and that is only for solidworks.
I really like the wight reduction designs though and if there are no torque problems that is an amazing gearbox.
