I'm not very familiar with the 4.5V electrics. Did the motor only come in
gray/black, or were there multiple colors available?
For the three motors already modeled, one was done with multiple parts, the
others as a single part. So there's no clear precedent.
2986.DAT Electric Technic Micromotor
- (Remco Braak) all one part
71427C01.DAT Electric Technic Mini-Motor 9v
- (James Jessiman) multiple parts: base, top, spindle
2838C01.DAT Electric Technic Motor 9V
- (John Van Zwieten) all one part
So I guess it's your call.
