The timescales are very short, probably prohibiting a control loop that could detect the load rising and react in a way that would help the transmissions, if there really is one.

A 'free' fix might be to simply kill motor power just prior to feeding the ball in, but that'll impact shooter performance to one degree or another and may or may not really accomplish anything.
