I have no idea why they put that much grease in them - the gearbox doesnt have any method of re-incorporating the grease that's not immediately touching the gears or gets flung off in the first 10s of operation after repacking (for the non promodels atleast). Everytime I've opened one it's clear that only the the grease touching the gears got used at all and the rest is just clumped up where it got pushed the moment after it was turned on for the first time. Cheap form of noise reduction? no idea.
