Yep...never seen one that small--can you believe the magnets on the stock motor are
rubber, like you find in children's magnetic letter sets? Pulling apart the axles required me to make a new screwdriver as the drivers are mounted with a semi-castled nut...

...and the first very major snag is hit. The frame was glued together by the original builder, making it nearly impossible to pull apart without risking great damage. The frame is easily...and I mean easily bent. Because the motor actually is saddled over the axle, I can't install it or do a remotor with a gearbox. All in all a very discouraging start...
