Exclamation Need KOP Gearbox

My team is in need of an additional KOP gearbox, but cannot fit ordering another from IFI Robotics in time and budget constraints. We need this for our current arm design, and have exhausted all other methods of accomplishing the gear reduction we need. We simply do not have the funds/support. If your team is not using the KOP gearbox, I am asking your help to donate it to our team. We are willing to pay shipping, and would be very grateful. We are willing to trade kit motors and parts that we arent using, or old kit parts.

Thanks so much,
Tom and Team 195

PS. I have posted this in the CD-Swap system, but I have a feeling the message is not getting to as many people as it could be.

Hmm... We need it for our test-bed bot, but if you can wait till the last week of build, we can help.
