I don't have a right-angle adapter (and my flexible drive is just for light duty jobs) so when I need to drill holes in joists, I use a stubby Wood Beaver in my impact driver (much shorter than my drill/driver) it is very noisy, but damned fast ...
If it's the one that I'm using at the time... The 12V Mak would do it but is longer; as I said, the 10.8V is OK as well.
Here you go:
Spontaneous reproduction - the Aldi one didn't exist until you got the TS one.
Have you considered putting a chuck on a 100 mm angle grinder I did and it works, you can buy a cheap chuck with the same thread (internal)as the grinder on ebay
How fast does that spin?
You've never need reverse?
Too fast but depends on what you are drilling (I don't think I would use hole saws :) )you can get variable speed angle grinders, has worked for me
Very rarely, When do you use reverse?
Maybe he wants a tool that will do every known job in the universe.
I did a job once where I had to fall back on a very old drill, and using an auger it required reverse. With a glove on it's not hard to rotate it a turn or so by hand.

I don't think the right angle drive adapters work well, and proper right angle drills are very expensive. So, this seems quite a neat bodge, as the chucks are just over a fiver on ebay.
Please forgive me for thinking of a couple of possible drawbacks and asking Mr Murtz about those before buying.
Which is why I've hung on to that Wicks cordless drill. You remove the chuck (one hand fixing), fit the adaptor which locks to the drill body in a variety of positions, and fit the chuck to it. So the combination can be used one handed if needed. It is a bit more unwieldy than a pukka right angle drill, but generally does what I want it for.
