Does not negate a two gear auto bot, but does add one more factor to make it harder.
Ooooorrr, you place 2 gears on Rotor 2 first, than one pilot cranks Rotor 2 while the other pilot collects the last gear and slots it in Rotor 1. Then you just have to get a gear in Rotor 1 with enough time for 3 cranks on Rotor 2. Which probably means slotting Rotor 1 with 1-2 seconds left. So delivering the last gear with 4ish seconds left? Depends on how fast a pilot can lift a gear.
