Re: Versa Planetary v2 (3:1) Planet Gear Seizing

Check that the pins on the carrier plate haven't moved. We had trouble with them popping out slightly and seizing in 2015 and ended up having to weld them in (Pretty sure VexPro suggested this when we contacted them). We used the v1's, but the v2's still don't have welded pins.

This was under pretty high torque though, which it sounds like yours aren't. Just a suggestion.
