Although I am certain you could make it work, the design is turning out rather complex. Overall, if you put the drill (in high) along with the chiaphua directly to a shaft, with the chiaphua on the clutch bearing, the free speed of the chiaphua is 3.5x the drill. This is probabaly the simplest method to make it work. Then just gear it down from there to the output shaft.


It might just be easier to use the Thunderchickens 2002 CCT. With the stronger motors, and higher current constraints, coupled with the use of a worm gear with a 11 degree lead angle, it might solve the problems they were having. The overall theory is quite similar to what you are trying to do, but how it works is very different.
