Madison question for you have you changed the chassis design from the drawing you posted about a month ago with the completed chassis design?

I haven't changed anything significant about the design at all since I posted CAD drawings.
The completed module is 9 lbs. and the chassis it rides in is about 5.5 lbs, so without electronics, we're looking at a completed drivetrain for about 42 lbs. It's a bit heavier than I typically try to make drive trains, but not by very much. The wheels are individually heavier than all six of the wheels we normally run on our more traditional chassis designs combined.
