"You've been, THUNDERSTRIKED!"

Doesn't really have the same ring to it. Oh well. :|

My team is trying to create a crab drive ourselves, and we are looking at different options. A coaxial crab is what we are thinking about. Is that what this is? and if so, would you be able to tell me how much this one weighs?

(or a rough estimate)

this would be much appreciated.

[BenX2Drummer]
