To lock M3 screw and nut on these positions is a headache to me (Sorry borrow your photo again, Brian) :

If lock them before installing of two driving motors, it'll be quite difficult to install the driving motors later on.

Yet vice versa, if install two driving motors before locking them, it'll be extremely difficult to do so as well.

Any better ideas from all of your skilful builders?

I've had my motors and motorspacers in/out a couple of times with all of the panels locked/screwed down. Cant say I encountered any problems doing so🤔 A bit fiddly yes, but not particular difficult.

It’s been a while but I definitely have installed/removed motors in a completely build hull. That reminds me that I’ll have to order motion soon.

Like mentioned before it’s not terribly difficult. Having a variety of wrenches helps! Sometimes I use a multi tool for bicycles or even a disposable key that may be modified or cut to a certain length so I can get it into a tight spot.
