I've not tried this yet but... in the new geared motor sets there is
a clutch plate with a Newton marking on the side. Also there is a
ratchet design in the Cyber Wars kits. They use a shaft extender that
rides on a gear to provide the ratchet effect. This coupled with two
of the clutches (which are gears) should do the trick. The problem is
there is only one clutch with each motor :-(
