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

We have been having issues with 3:1 reductions as well.
One of ours was obviously made out of spec (one gear couldn't move at all, couldn't be removed from shaft) and the other was having binding issues.
We just used 4:1s, and they worked fine IIRC.
