Re: ruber bands and drill motors

Your in bad shape when the clip pops out. This is what the rubber band is for and I urge everyone to use their. We already lost a transmission because the zip ties we were using loosened up and the pin popped out and the place shifter broke. Use the rubber band to hold the clips in place and use zip ties to keep the shifter in place. It the clips do pop out you will have to look at the motor diagrams, I think their is on in the white paper, because I don't think it works quite right if you just pop the pin in.
