And to answer the second question, unless you really screw up there should be no major complications, other than the ones your drive may already have.  |
an hour?!?!?! we pulled ours completely apart and back together in the time we had between two matches... had to do so because of a strong right hand lean-- turned out to have a drill bit in one of the gearboxes, which placed a nice little groove in one of the spur gears...if you decide to start pulling boxes apart, just make sure you do not loose any parts and you know how well they go together
on the one motor system, we ran ours for a match that way, and it worked fine.. but look for weight elsewhere before sacrificing motors
