which brings up another question: have you had problems with your robot/prototype? i mean something like blowing up or smoking. our motors started to smoke

we had that problem with our gearboxes too...i figured out that the lock washer you put on the shaft to hold on the pinion was binding with the other gears...so we removed the lockwasher and just used the newer set screws that were included in the parts bag... try that and they shouldnt smoke.
