Gotta swap this for a proper eIV "oneway" gear.

each of the eIII/IV/5 have their own unique gears so never intermix


re parts availability, depends how u see it

eIII = TB02 so a lot of the gears, plastic bulkheads & diff outdrives
got boughtup by TB02 people which led to shortage

e5 = TB03 so same again for gears, diff parts, centre shaft etc
but they're still a current model so shouldn't be parts shortage

eIV otoh is a bit of an orphan, its got own gears & nothing unique reused
on another model ... so some LHS may still have unsold old stock


eIV has their own rctech thread
