Some things that are handy and useful in a tape player are quite the opposite in a robot that needs to roll around. Wasn't it neat how when you played a tape and it got to the end it would stop automatically instead of ripping the tape off the spool and/or burning out your motor?

Yeah, well we had to get rid of that part or else the robot would just click-click-click in place and be very boring.

It's a little too detailed to go into, but you have to probe around the insides with a jeweler's screwdriver or tweezers, and once you've figured it out its simply a matter of ripping off a plastic piece or removing a spring.
