Don't know whether I can explain properly what I mean but I'll have a go. It it possible to mount the motor on a tongue, which would be firmly attached to the rear portion, and slot into the next section forrard?

Well I tried sticking it on a tongue but i got my head stuck in the hull section....

Believe it or not that was exactly what I have been working on today. I designed a casing that will hold the gears in place, and that has a hollow output shaft back to the motor (I am using a turret rotation motor as it fits easily and is low power, so a smaller battery pack. It also has a strip that aligns the motor with the shaft and the middle drive gear.

Mr Wibbly Jules Verne has nothing on you! This build gets better every day

Starting to look the business.
