Default TRX 4 2spd trans looks like no lube in this video

TRX 4 2spd trans looks like no lube in this video. Is this normal? I also noticed this in one of my WL toys 10428 twin hammers clone.

when I pulled mine open recently all the fun bits had some stuff on them, looked more like the gel surrounding spam then grease though. I duly overpacked them all with marine grease because I didn't not like how the metal parts were water wet 2 days after trailing it... Also over packing the diffs allow them to diff without the nasty clashing sounds they do dry >.<

I needed to add grease to mine.

NOTE: TRX 4 has its own section under scale.

It is not nearly as hard to get to the transmission as it would seem, just follow Harley's video and you will have it out in no time. Only thing a bit off is that the spur cover should not be stuck to the motorplate as his was due to melting the pinion into cover.. it should come off easily...
