Can you post a picture of the legs and motor assembly? The the motors directly moving the leg or are they a geared motor?

There's a gear in your landing gear that has stripped, i think it's the crown gear, but it's been a while since i read that.

Somewhere either here or on Scale 4x4 there's a thread that says what other smaller tamiya kit also has the piece so you don't have to buy a new motorized leg kit.
