Well, when we discussed the matter of the motor (post fabrication of our aluminum) we decided that it would be on the lower end of our worries and accepted the fact that, with protection or without protection, the motor was likely going to end up damaged. So, when I wired the robot, I made the motor removable with male-female leads and we have extra gearboxes and motors ready to go in case we need to switch it out. Thanks for bringing that up though! I hadn't thought about that motor for a while.
Best of luck!
