Gear isn't really applicable to electric flap motors. In fact, the motors are working a lot harder under an airload to move the flaps, than they might on the ground.
I would imagine you would run all flap half way, then you could play with inboards and outboards separately to avoid overheating. If some motors did burn out, hopefully you would still have the other flap sections still working getting pitch up or down on that inboard or outboard section only.
Some motors? There are only two.
The Leading Edge Devices have separate motors for the groups, but for the trailing edge you have a choice; inboard or outboard.
