Is it loose in the receiver,if yes try pulling from the back of the gearbox.And it helps putting it in auto.

need to kinda force it a little. It is a really tight fit, just make sure 100% there is nothing holding it in before you start forcing/wiggling it out.

Take off every single thing. Including the pistol grip which holds the screws to the mechbox shell.

If you have proceed, next step is to the the end of the mechbox (opposite side of the air nozzle) and lift it up first and wiggle it out.

be careful not to pull the motor wires out of the gearbox if it comes apart in a jerk.

*sigh*.... put the fire selector to SAFE, lift the front of the mechbox out, you should be able to pull the trigger, start lifting the back of the mechbox out, after that, if it becomes slightly stuck, push the mechbox towards the stock end of the reciever, and lift out again. If that doesn't work, you can grab the mechbox with 1 hand and give a gentle tap on the metal piece that the stock attaches on to. Make sure you don't lift by the nozzle or tear the wires, or whack the reciever too hard, which will tear the wires.
