Default Replacement ultrafly gearbox?

I went out tonight to fly my ultrafly cessna for the first time, I had it going good but when I tried to do a loop it got to the top and stalled, I panicked and wrecked it nose first into the ground [].

Its not too mangled thow, the firewall needs replaced, and I need a new gearbox (or some of the geabox parts anyways), the cowl is wrinkled up as well but im not worried about that.

Ive traced out the firewall and will cut out a new one tommorow.

As for the gearbox, I've looked everywhere and cannot find a replacement one, or even one that looks like it would work. I just need the spur gear, the shaft, and a ball bearing, the rest of it is still good.


The closest Ive come up with is to buy the brushless motor which comes with the gearbox, however I dont want to put a brushless motor on it and I shure dont want to pay 80 bucks just to get the gearbox.

If anyone knows of somewhere that sells a gearbox for it let me know, if not I guess Ill email ultrafly and see if they can sell me one, or at least tell me where to buy one.

FYI,

I have had very good experience replacing delicate factory GBs with MPJet GBs from Hobby Lobby.
