I have no plans to actually build it but if anyone else is interested it's a start.

You will burn up those motors when they are linked link that. brushless is not a fan of being linked together. brushed is the only way to effectively link multiple motors on the same gearbox. i cant remember the exact reason but in college our robotics team avoided this kind of setup like the plague.
