Therefore, by optimizing the geometric parameters of the gearbox such as, the module, number of teeth, axial clearance, and backlash, it is possible to obtain a light-weight-gearbox structure and minimize the rattling noise.

The complete nacelle weight (including gearbox and generator) is 215 kN and the rotor weight is 140 kN.
Determination of volume or weight of a gearbox is an important issue in preliminary design of power transmission applications.
In fact, it produced 300 bhp in a narrow power band and was further handicapped by its large size and weight; combined with the gearbox it weighed nearly as much as rival team Brabham's entire car.
Kings Dominion later explained the closure through a statement released on their official Facebook page on August 28, 2013, which stated that a problem with the weight distribution on the gearbox caused a part to warp and fail.
Electric motors do not need a gearbox, which reduces weight and mechanical complexity.
The result is to drop the gearbox, a source of weight and friction.
Move from a modern car, and a period 911's offset, floor-hinged pedals, recalcitrant gearbox and rear-set weight bias could cause some unease.
