Not quite:
H10: GEARS stay installed. Once a ROTOR is started, the PILOT may not remove any GEARS used to start it.


This would indicate gear sets can be rotated, short of starting the rotor, and a non-pre-installed gear can then be removed. If you can get the same or another gear back on the gear set and continue rotating before 10 seconds elapsed, you'd still be good, I'd think, otherwise you have to start a new three rotations.

Depends upon where the sensors are, I'd think one on first and last gear in set would be sufficient. But maybe there's only a sensor on one of those and they rely on refs to see that you don't cheat the system.
