The same way you get motors which were never FRC-legal:

Edit: I see we have
one two on the way from FIRST Choice! It's always easier to see how something might fit a job if you have one in hand. A window-motor class gear motor with FRC style mountings and a built-in encoder - sounds like we'll find a good use for it! (I'd be surprised if they couldn't raise those flags in the field drawings the past couple of years which weren't used.)
Edit2: Considering FTC motors to be smoke generators is a function not only of the only FTC motors previously allowed, but the function they were required to fill, and the value of being a hundredth of a second faster than the other guy. Not even excepting the can grabbers in 2015, my impression of reading old posts and attending Karthik's game strategies presentation in 2015 is that the minibot race for LogoMotion was the steepest arms race in FRC history. Liquid nitrogen baths - really?
