 To anyone who is discouraged about their team, don't let yourself get down. I've seen my team go from having a robot that barely moved (and I'm not kidding, we had keys falling out of gearboxes) to this year with a robot that is ACTUALLY GOING TO WORK. Don't lose hope, stick with FIRST! - ZipTie3182 [more] |

Re: AM Planetary Gearbox (removing the fisher price gear/buying one without a gear)
Search this site for various ways to remove the pinion gear. You need to be very careful or you will trash the shaft and/or bearings.
We dremel a notch and then whack the pinion with a cold chisel. Cold chisel alone will work if you have a big enough hammer. I believe that Andy Mark was supposed to be a source for the motors this year, probably with the pinion attached. I also believe that the entire assembly (but not the motor alone) can be ordered as a fisher price replacement part. Beware - only the motor with the 9015 part number markings is FIRST legal.
