[QUOTE="Chris, post: 50, member: 1"] KEYi TECH is sending out 300 ear medical kits for Kickstarter backers wishing to conduct the ear repair themselves. These kits will consist of motors with metal sun gears for replacement in Loona. The kits should arrive by February 2023. To request a kit fill out and submit the form at the following link: [URL]https://airtable.com/shrwBkbjIgr5eJNXJ[/URL] If you are unable to access Loona’s warranty or gain access to metal sun gears for Loona’s ear motors or simply want to have Loona’s ears functioning properly right now, then you can replace the broken plastic sun gears and have them work successfully. Various sources have reported success with taking the plastic sun gear from this specific motor and using it to replace the broken sun gears in Loona’s ear motors: [URL]https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1339.html[/URL] Tips from the source who stated success with these plastic sun gears mentioned above: • Only the sun gears from this specific motor are useable in Loona. It requires keeping Loona’s existing motor and replacing the sun gear components only. No other part of this motor is suitable for use in Loona. • Use a thin blade to pry open the white plastic oval vanity cover to avoid damaging it. • There are two screw colours, silver and black, ensuring ease of reassembly. Note I have not conducted this repair on my Loona as all mine function normally. So the sources experience may differ from your experience and you replace the sun gears using unofficial parts at your own risk. [/QUOTE]
