By coupling the Chiphua motor to the drill motor before the transmission, am I correct in believing you're attempting to couple a shaft to that tiny little nub of the drill shaft that protrudes from the back? . . . like the TechnoKats motor mounts from last season?

I'm a bit scared of doing that with my team, so we were considering gearing the Chiphua motor output to the drill motor output after the output stages of the drill gearbox. As such, we'd have to keep the drill in either a low or high position with no possibility of shifting via the transmission, though we don't expect that to be a problem for us.

Are there any inherent risks or problems to this approach that I'm ignoring completely? I'd like to think this is easier than coupling before the drill transmission, but my experience with drive trains is limited, to say the least.
