I want to get a new complete gearbox for my DBoys m4, are there any good ones less than $80? the dboys one is $55 but the bushings in my current dboys gearbox are terrible.

I want a completely assembled drop-in gearbox and i dont want to do any wiring to it. Would this fit in a dboys m4? http://echo1usa.com/English/index.php?m ... e1a56cb218

It's hard to find an entire functioning gearbox with $80 that will last a while at a good working condition.
Save up some money and go to the higher end internals. You get what you pay for.

Let me get this straight... you have cheap (nylon?) bushings in your otherwise functional gearbox. Instead of dropping $5-10 on some steel bushings, you want a whole new gearbox?

One normally would remove things such as batteries before messing with anything electrical...
