Last year the Mighty Mule Gate Opener gave out at the farm where I occasionally work. Took it apart and determined the motor was shot. GTO (mfr) will not sell a replacement motor. They wanted to sell a remanned arm at a couple of hundred bucks. Couldn't track down the exact replacement from the original motor mfr here in the US, but did find one at an RC hobby shop that seems to work fine. Had to press off the old gear on the end of the fried motor and install on the new one. Not a big deal. For anyone that's handy enough to take apart the arm and replace the motor yourself, you'll save big $$$. The replacement motor cost $22 locally and I've seen them online for under $20. It's a Titan 550, 21 turn/14 volt by Traxxas p/n #3975.
