Did FIRST intend to give two, but then realized they didn't send all teams 2? Or did they accidently send 2? It seems conspicuous that some teams got 2 motors, AND it was listed as 2 in the begining. Any thoughts?
There was some confusion during the prep of the KOP. Some teams received two motors but the intent was to only have one. The KOP list may have been the source of confusion but I can tell you that inspectors are being instructed that only van door motor per the update.
Team Update 1
"Corrections to Kit of Parts quantities...
Taigene – The quantity should be 1, not 2."
