Banebots 42mm - No Longer Availible!

[Eric O]

I am looking to get a hold of at least one Banebots 42mm 64:1 gearbox and/or at least one 48:1 gearbox. I went to purchase some extras for the Championship only to find out that Banebots have stopped making them. When I emailed them this:

>> I am trying to purchase a 64/1 42mm gearbox for the 550 motor and you have not had them in stock for over a month. I also noticed that the 48/1 and 27/1 are also out of stock. Are these items going to be restocked shortly [within a week] or have they been discontinued?

They Responded with:

Dear Eric O'Brien,
These items are being re-designed in house so that we can alleviate availability issues and to incorporate changes requested by customers. The new series will not be available until later this year. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Sincere thanks,
BaneBots, LLC



Therefore I am either looking to purchase some from others who do not need them, or at least get a list of teams going to Atlanta who will have them, and are willing to sell or trade for one. Do have any of these gearboxes? Are you willing to sell them?

The good news out of all of this is that Banebots may be making a better product than what they currently have (which shouldn't be too tough of a task).

Thank you all for your help,

-Eric
