and looking at the turret...that indentation where the gear is, looks like a gear similar to the transfer gear on a bit would fit there, and another spur gear would be centered on that tiny hole just to the right of the hole (well, to the right according to the pic, actual position would be a bit back and to the right?) a shaft sits in that top hole and connects to the other hole in the bottom. only problem is trying to transfer power from the motor, which would run lengthwise of the tank, maybe a couple bevel gears could solve that.
I agree, you could fit a motor in the space to the right of the battery pack. And you could setup gears in the way you described with the turret gear hole. But yah, transfering the power from the motor to the turret gears would be the problem, and would be difficult given battery placement.

How they tease us!
