just remove the clutch. Pry at the top of it, around the output shaft, until A) it breaks into many pieces or B) it comes off, either way, you are better off without it.


This is gracious professionalism:

At a local competition, we destroyed the tranny of one of our drill motors. we had no extras, and thought we were done. Well, noone had any but the poofs, and they immediately gave it to us. They asked for nothing in return, and they let us keep it to. They could have denied us the motor, knowing that we were their biggest threat, but they showed the true spirit of FIRST. Hats off to the Poofs, and every other team, you are the epitome of gracious professionalism.

This is what happens at the competitions. I try to explain this to new members all the time. Other teams are not out to get you, they are out to help you. Numerous times we made a broadcast asking for parts/tools/etc, and within five minutes, there would be people from four teams at our pits with whatever it was we needed.

This is a big part of why I love FIRST
