Re: [FTC]: Matrix Motor now has Plastic gear.

The other gears aren't necessarily metal, either. I seem to remember a composite gear or two somewhere in there as well. Search the forums for 'Tetrix motor' and look for posts from the FRC 2011 season. There's a plethora of gripes about them and how quickly things break down under stress.
