thanks, Bill

i do need a nice gearbox for my mega too...
mega has nice $40 gearbox but it is kind of noisy. If you could find a helical gearbox that fits the mega then it would be nice... since helical gear is more efficient than spur gearbox and it is quiet too... Actually the sound of helical gearbox is very pleasant.

i just bought a Mega 2:1 gearbox for a 15-4 Mega motor and it looks very good and spins super smooth. the only issue i see with it is that you have to Locktite or glue on the pinion gear. you need a gear puller to get it off i guess so i order a puller from Tower just in case i want to use the motor again for direct drive.
