Kop gearbox vs 3 CIM Ball Shifter

Team is considering using Kop gearbox instead of 3cim ball shifter on tank drive system. The 3 CIM Ball shifter takes up more space and also requires pneumatics to operate. We are looking into figuring out how to shift without pneumatics. Any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Using Kop gearbox motor combination would be
2cims
1cim 1 mini CIM

Using 3 CIM Ball shifter motor combination would be
2 cims
1cim 1 mini CIM
1 CIM 2 mini cim
Any suggestion.
