But... if you do ever need to install it you might want to watch some videos online. It's not particularly difficult but it requires cutting the tape to remove the top half of the airplane. Then you have to cut and pry the old gearbox out while trying to minimize damage to the airplane. And of course all the pieces are rather small so even getting a grip on the gearbox can be difficult for larger hands. Review: Authentic hobby zone parts, got my sport cub back in the air - Fit perfectly, motor slid right in and it was easy to glue down. Perfect one-to-one replacement ## Features - Product Type :Toys And Games - Package Dimensions :4.0" L X2.2" W X1.0" H - Country Of Origin :China - Package Quantity :1 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00LOC0MFQ | | Age Range Description | Kid | | Best Sellers Rank | #195,059 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #31 in RC Vehicle Transmission Gearboxes | | Brand Name | HobbyZone | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 141 Reviews | | Educational Objective | Classroom Decoration | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00605482578124 | | Item Dimensions | 4 x 2.2 x 1 inches | | Item Weight | 0.01 kg | | Manufacturer | Horizon Hobby | | Manufacturer Part Number | HBZ4430 | | Manufacturer recommended age | 14 years and up | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | HBZ4430 | | Number of Batteries | 1 Nonstandard Battery batteries required. | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Number of Players | 1 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Power Source | Manual | | Size | Small | | Supported Battery Types | No batteries required | | Theme | Hobby - RC Airplanes | | UPC | 605482578124 783719974045 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Images ![Complete Gear Box: Sport Cub S - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XrVAg5idL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does the hobbyzone rc carbon cub come with gps?** A: no **Q: What type of adhesive is used on the original Sport Cub S gear box?
