Now...here's the thing...

If the photo shows two pneumatic pistons, they'd be allowed only a single other custom cylinder. Those are each small bore, small stroke pistons, and thus, a custom order.

As per the rules, they wouldn't be able to order the two additional pistons necessary to make a second transmission for the other side of their robot.

So, based on that, and that each plate of the gearbox is alike, I'll guess that the motors (four, probably) all attach to a single gearbox.

This, of course, requires that their robot be only 2WD, or that it be 4WD with a differential. I'd imagine it's the latter.
