The original (2012?) version had an issue with covering the input air vent on the motor. Has Bainbots addressed this? The old solution was to mill "X" channels in the gearbox face where the motor mounts. I am not sure but I believe that face is down in the picture so I can not tell if the design has be updated.

Be advised that the RS775 motors overheat even under light load if the air vents are blocked. They depend on an internal fan moving air to achieve the power rating.
