Pretty interesting.  I've only got 4583, so I haven't been able to do
any side-by-side motor comparisions.  Anyone done any time trials with
real parts?

I'm embarassed to admit, though, that I haven't figured out how to make
the alternate models for 4583 Maverick Storm with the provided pieces.
Something seems amiss. Anyone figured these out?

Yeah, they weren't too much of a problem.  Except that working on them
exposed some plate warpage I hadn't noticed before. :(
