[OCCRA]: hose clamps on drill transmissions' gear selector?

previous years' drill transmissions' gear selector tended to pop into "neutral" during matches so we clamped them in either gear with hose clamps... do you recommend doing so this year too? if yes, how? the gear selector is 90 degrees off from last year.. and also 3 gears...

The transmission is a great improvement over last year. You should experience no problem of popping out of gear.

Yes, the selector moves in a different direction, that is a good thing as the mech inside is all metal gears not plastic as in the past.

The 3 gear choices will give you a choice to match your wheel size.
