An electric taxi system (ETS) for an aircraft may include an annular output gearbox positioned between a wheel and a main strut of a main landing gear of the aircraft. The output gearbox may surround a brake piston assembly of the wheel of the aircraft. One or more selectively operable engaging assemblies, for selectively coupling the ETS with the wheel of the aircraft, may be positioned between the output gearbox and the wheel of the aircraft. The one or more selectively operable engaging assemblies may be coupled with an output gear of the output gearbox to rotate with the output gear.
