Sky Prodigy 130 Motor Assembly

Hey guys,

So I have a Skyprodigy here and using it the other night somehow the power cord wrapped around the mount and pulled up inside the plastic housing and managed to jam the large gear drive. Thus leading to a bit of a crunching sound at which point I stopped the drive. Cleared the jam set it back up and now I’m getting slippage. Pull the mount apart to check out the motor drive and I see that is has a couple of metal gears and a few plastic ones. One of the plastic gears has rounded out a few of its teeth(this would be the slipping). So to the point. I’m in need of a new motor drive or a new gear. Now I’m just trying to figure out if it is the same motor as the NexStar series and if so has anybody any idea of where I might source one?
Part No. slt-f001.11015
Is this possibly the same part as slt-f00-1b?

Cheers,
Sharpy
