I recently had a flap motor failure in my RV-8. I took it apart and cleaned grease from it according to suggestions make on VAF. After about 10 hours, it failed again. I bought a new motor to install on the flap drive mechanism, but can't figure out how to remove the worm drive gear from the old motor shaft and install it on the new motor shaft. Have any of you done this? There is no evidence of a set screw in the gear and the new motor does not have a splined drive shaft or a flat spot on the shaft. I would appreciate suggestions about how to go about this.
Thanks,
