The motors DO NOT screw directly to the gearbox .....they are instead screwed to a seperate adaptor plate that attaches to the gearbox via a clip arrangement ....( similar to a light bulb type thing )...push ...twist ....and the motor adaptor clips into two opposing indents in the gearbox housing.
recieved them today woody, but there are two clips on each motor which holds the plastic bit to the motr itself, on each motor one clip has snapped off presume in transit
just wondering whats the best way to rectify the problem?
i would forget about the clips. If they break in transit (like mine did too) then there is little chance of them surviving in the arena.
You have two options.
1) Use the drill mounts that support both the motor and gearbox.
2) Make a bracket that has a plate between where the motor joins its plastic plate and another at the front of the gearbox and attach the two using some screwed thread or long bolts.
