I bought a 9T gear for my Blade 400 motor and thought it was going to be a simple job of unhooking the leads, removing 4 screws, and lifting the motor out. After removing the 4 screws, the motor moves a little but it will not pull out of the frame using light to moderate force. Do I need to loosen/remove anything else or just gorilla arm it out of there?

you need to loosten some of the screws that hold the two halves of the main frame together.
You don't need to remove them completely but enough so that you can spread the frames a bit and then remove the mount for the motor. I assume that you have removed the 4 screws on the motor mount already.
