At tiki, the spark was due to the gear box being stuck, and we were sending power with jumper wires with clips directly to a battery. So the stuck box was causing a bunch of current at the motor.
We did have the motor (775 pro) off the box when we were looking for the issue. I didn't check for bad bearing or bent shaft but will this evening.

At Aren I sent an email to vex about this email address is same as my name here. My contact info is included in email perhaps you could give me a call?
