I saw that there were some bugs last year though I've been informaed those have been resolved, are any of these bugs still present or have any new ones arose? The BaneBot aside, is there a better gearbox that anyone knows about that's possibly cheaper or at least under 100$? If someone could message me with details (I assume there's a messaging system on this site) it would be much appriciated. I'll also be looking back to this thread regularly to check up on it, thank you.

The
AndyMark single speed is far superior to the banebots in performance/reliability (strength safety factor), weight, cost, efficiency etc.... It can also take both a big and small CIM, or two small CIMs with no modifications.
The banebots will work if used right, but there are far better solutions.
