Thank you.
For a direct 15:1 ratio you could get a VexPro VersaPlanetary with a 3:1 and a 5:1 reduction (which combine to create a 15:1), you would also need a CIM Adapter and 2 ring gears.

Alternatively you could buy this 16:1 BaneBots Gearbox from AndyMark that comes with all the parts you need (though costs more).

You could also use a ToughBox Micro with a 12.75:1 ratio and add a sprocket reduction using a 12 tooth and a 15 tooth sprocket.


I believe both Vex and AndyMark ship internationally.
