Please measure the shaft size and key size. If the shaft size is 11mm
and the key size is 4mm, then we can easily swap the given sprocket for
a #35 chain sprocket.
Also, if you don't mind taking the gearbox apart (simply remove the 4
screws), can you count the number of teeth on each of the gears? That
will tell us the gear ratio.

Sounds like a great deal, if the gear ratio is the same as we're
currently using for our tanks.
