I agree with this whole heartedly, the drive train keeps you in the game.

That being said, a good moto is "When in doubt, make it stout" meaning if a joint or mechanism looks questionable, beef it up until you feel comfortable with it.

You might want to capture the end of the drive shaft in a bearing, will help keep your transmission and drive shaft lined up as well as distribute some of the robot weight a bit.
