[FTC]: Matrix Motor now has Plastic gear.
Oopps, Title should have been Tetrix Motor now has plastic gear.
Has anybody had trouble with the gear boxes from the new Tetrix motors? After grinding a few we took one apart and found that one of the gears is plastic. We have had some old ones apart in the past and they were originally brass. Is Lego saving that much money going to plastic? I am willing to pay a couple of dollars more to get the brass ones. I wonder if Lego will warranty the motors? If I take the old brass gears and replace the plastic ones will that be legal?
