Keep in mind that COTS(consumer off the shelf) products do not count towards your withholding allowance, so if you can complete the rest of your system without this, you can order one now and have it in for your first event. The rules also state this year that you are allowed an unlimited number of miniCIMs, so if you need more torque, you use a miniCIM instead of pairing bag motors, or at least sub it in so you can test code and have something working.

It really depends on what you have on hand though. If you have no time to order anything at all, being able to make your own transmissions is not likely.
