Reminds me of an idea I once had for a "parallel radial" engine.

That looks a lot like a duke engine.

Actually if teams use the current monitoring properly, a team could maximize the time motors spend in their peak efficiency range (errr, closer to peak at least) and still get large output output torques (less torque per motor, more torque overall).

If done right you'd get a decent performance increase and exactly ride whatever line you set in terms of net current draw.

Not really.

In many industries torque/current control is THE standard form of control.

It wouldn't be crazy to limit max current to some time varying value.

Looks more like a 4 CIM + 4 mini-CIM, if I'm not mistaken

Can you comment on what exact gears you would use if you were to make this?

Re: pic: Fun Bevel Gearbox Idea

Dumb question: How would one remove a motor for maintenance, if needed? There doesn't seem to be much access.

I cant say for sure, I already had the CAD for these bevel gears sitting around in my computer. Although, I think the model originally cam from a QTC online catalog, so you could probably buy them there.
