I like it, I think you've got the right idea. You could totally get away with this but here's some thoughts.

What made you choose a dead axle over live axle? And in this setup do you plan to cantilever the gears? I think you could save weight if you ran live axle gears as you could fit a much smaller gear in between the cims.

I think you could simplify it a bit by removing one of the gears between the gear on the module shaft and the closest cim.

I could be totally wrong here, but in those renders is the robot not as long?
