775 Motors from AndyMark

With the typical disclaimer that 2015 rules =/= 2016 rules...

The only motor I recall where you had to use the provide gearbox is the window motor (and maybe van door or snowblower, but I'm not positive about those). Swapping gearboxes is otherwise entirely fine.

Since the bare 775 (AM 9015) motor is available on firstchoice, one would assume that it is 2016 legal without the gearbox.

[Knufire]

The 9015 is a RS500 sized motor: http://www.andymark.com/product-p/am-0912.htm

The Andymark 775 motor can be found with two different pinions and with/without a backshaft for an encoder.

That is Frank's answer from the FRC Blog post on motor controllers regarding the legality of 2016 motors.
