mp5 gear box issues

[Bullet]

I own a Tm mp5sd5 and have just got a problem. Basicly it wont fire. The motor is ok as it spins when un meshed from the gearbox. All the wiring is ok and the battery is good. When the motor is meshed it just rocks. It was firing fine and just stopped. Any advice????

Gearbox has jammed/locked up. Take it apart and give it a clean.

Yeh broken pieces

Could be anything really. Check for damage to anything, if none then just rebuild and retest.

Will do that then. The gear box has all been uprated with bearings and shim plates and s*** so im alittle miffed. But it was a while ago.

Could be anything. These things wear out, especially if you running them modified.

Might just be a simple lock up which is a design fault
