Re: BaneBots Gearbox Locking UP

In the first stage, the sun gear is supported by the motor. You're right about the lack of sun gear support in the center stage of the 3 stage boxes. Although the sun gear in any of the stages after first is somewhat supported by the planet carrier that drives it.

You could probably get by without the support for the sun gear on the final stage, but you might want to take it apart and check the wear pretty often....then again, you might want to take it apart and check for wear (and add new grease) pretty often no matter what you do!

The upside is that they're fun to take apart and play with.
