How do you configure a gearbox in RBMwizard if the box has a worm gear? I have 320 small gear boxes that are set up as follows: The box is single input quad output. Input is a pinion gear with 28t mounted to motor driving GB shaft 1 input gear 67t output gear double flight worm driving gb shaft 2 ip gear 39t op gears 1-4 24t driving final op shafts ip gears 32t (hope that all made sense). Anyhow seems to me they should promt you for gear type as well as tooth count instead of just tooth count. What do I use as tooth count for the worm gear? # of flights, # of wraps, # wraps*2? Thanks in advance for your replies.
Kind regards,

Its like any other gear, you just use the number of teeth around the gear.
