Drill Motor and Gearbox

[chompalot]

Red wedge down.

Whilst reviewing Red Wedge with a view to letting the Young Roboteers have a go driving a small combat robot, I realised that one of the wheels was seized. After stripping the gearbox, I found that many of the gears had broken teeth which were jamming the gearbox.

So I need a replacement if Red wedge is to fight again or at least . This is an old motor from an cheep drill I think it was B&Q we got them from.

The label on the motor says HRS-5505-12V se picture link below for what we're looking for.

so if anyone has one kicking around and would like to sell it to me please get in touch.

Cheers
Simon

these the same motors as the older Argos ones?

I couldn't say, they may be. do the argo ones look like the photo?

Looks just like the old Argos drill

They have changed their design which has affected the mounts and put the price up to an outrageous £20.99

I was hoping someone might have one kicking around that would be a direct replacement rather than having to mod it to fit.

I've got four which are potentially going spare when the new featherweights are done. What ends up happening to them, I'll keep you in touch.

Is it just the gears that are nackered? Take a picture of them and let me know how thick they are. I'll see if I have any gears kicking around.
