Step 5Installing the Motor Mount

Installing the Motor Mount
Here's a clever way to mount a motor to your robot fuse clips. Pager motors are small and they fit perfectly in fuse holder.

We'll use a fuse holder (part # MMFC, included in the parts bundle) to mount our motor.

Use pliers to "squeeze" the legs of the fuse holder around the paperclip frame, so that it stays in place while you solder.

Note: Don't solder directly to the motor - this is difficult, and you can ruin the part!
