Nobody has come up with a stronger gear for the Bravo drive yet. I had looked into it and was starting to get something going, but then lost my job and the R&D money was gone.

You can get the gears Cryo treated, but they will still break eventually.

Or switch to Konrads

Has anyone hit up the ring and pinion guys for help? It seems like motive gear or the likes could help in producing gears that last..
