[QUOTE="Chris, post: 59, member: 1"] [B]Unofficial Ear Parts Update[/B] I just inquired with someone who replaced the ear gears in their Loona and have heard they hold up long term. They are the same source who provided the link to the motor mentioned above but I will mention the link again here. [B]US Source for Unofficial Sun Gears[/B] The sun gears from this motor it has been reported will successfully work long term. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1339.html[/URL] [B]European Source for Unofficial Sun Gears[/B] I also discovered another source from Europe recommends the sun gear from this motor. But again they advise against replacing the motor and instead recommend keeping Loona’s existing ear motor and replacing the sun gears only. [URL]https://eu.robotshop.com/products/6v-96rpm-micro-dc-geared-motor[/URL] [B]Important[/B] It’s important not to replace the motor with an unofficial one, as people who have done this have reported the motor fails eventually and Loona’s ears cease to move. [B]Thankyou[/B] A big thanks to the people who provided this valuable information. I’m sure many future Loona owners will be appreciative of you taking the time to find these solutions and enabling a cheap DIY repair for a crucial component of Loona.👏👏👏 [/QUOTE]
