Yeah, I got two responses... 1: Use Testor's plastic model glue, and if
that doesn't hold 2: buy a new gear.
Of course, all the hobby shops around here deal with crappy plastic
models or slightly less than crappy (one step above Toys R Us) remote
control cars. So they don't grasp that some gears aren't available for
easy purchase. They are just trying to satisfy the local 13 year old's
that whine about wanting a cool RC car and the occasional helicopter.
Everything left in my immediate area is just a specialized toy store. And
I won't get into what the people at the toy stores tell me to use (the
local Toys R Us doesn't even stock plastic model glue... yet they have a
row of plastic models... when I asked how you were supposed to assemble
them, I was told they all snap together... when I pointed out the box
loads of ones that DON'T snap together and need glue, I was told they
come with glue... and when I pointed out the boxes that specifically
state that it does NOT come with glue... I was told "hold on, I'll go
check on that" and the guy ran away from me).
