An inverted compound harmonic drive including: a wave generator configured to receive rotational input; a flex spline disposed radially within the wave generator that receives energy due to the rotation of the wave generator, the flex spline including a plurality of inner facing splines that include an axial center spline, a first axial end spline being adjacent to and forward of the axial center spline, and a second axial end spline adjacent to and aft of the axial center spline; an output gear meshes with the axial center spline; a first ground gear adjacent to and forward of the output gear that meshes with the first axial end spline; and a second ground gear adjacent to an aft of the output gear that meshes with the second axial end spline.
