If you look at the picture of the new motor, you may notice that the orange disk
with the cross axle hole in the center appears to be a single piece with four
pin holes in addition. This might give the impression that the available torque
may be high enough to endanger the integrity of a single cross axle if it were
the only torque transfer structure.

| Well, 3 motors/output ports never were enough...
