Re: [FTC]: Common failures with TETRIX
I actually just took apart a gearbox on the DC Gearmotors (it was stripped, or acted stripped, so why not) and found one of the pinion gears shattered. It is obviously a pressed powder/sinter type material. Anyone else experience this? Anyone know if there is a place to buy the gearboxes or gears for the gearboxes. It's hard to know the final dimensions of this gear because it is in about 6-7 pieces. It appears to be a 9-11 tooth gear.
