I've taken pictures and attempted to identify each of the motors given for this year's game. I'm unable to identify a few, for a number of different reasons. Could someone let me know what the three that have '???' under them are called?

The black motor that you have labled Van Door is the Chiaphua. They included two Chiaphua and no Van Door this year.

The Orange motor is the Torque motor.

The last motor i believe is the Johnson.

Thanks! I've updated the page so now it should be accurate. Maybe I can even get some motor specs up in the near future.

The Manual's List of Components says there is one Van Door Motor and one Chiaphua motor. Is that a typo or something? I haven't opened the kit of parts so I really don't know.

And is there a gear box for the Chiaphua or the Johnson Electric Motor?

Thanks

Several teams have confirmed that there are two chalupa motors and no van door. I believe there is no gear box for the chalupa or johnson electric motor, although I think I saw gears in the kit that fit the output shaft.

I don't know for sure but there were some last minute issues with the Bosch van door motors as well.

When they were not on the list given out at the kickoff, I assumed that that meant that the issues didn't get resolved after all.

Time will tell.

Does anyone have any information on the "chalupa motor"? We haven't seen anything on that yet.

Joe Johnson had quite a bit of information on it on another thread: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1457
