I thought in Megaranger they just threw random mooks into the mecha to pilot them and not have an AI do it. Weirdly enough the only episode I've seen of Megaranger is the Megavoyager episode. Also the mech fight in that episode was brutal...
EDIT:
Did they create an entire new mook?

Yeah my bad, thought the megaranger and carranger stuff was nicknames, not actual different shows.

Its the shows from which Power Rangers is borrowing footage from. Megaranger is the season that In Space is adapting from and Carranger is Turbo.

the megavoyager two parter might be my top two episodes of sentai period

watch megaranger yall
Its a good episode and really dramatic. Also, arguably the best mecha fight I've seen from the series.

Do they have Previously On and Next Time segments now to cut down on the amount of original footage they have to shoot?

It's weird how the Turbo 2.0 people seem like entirely different characters, but also they get into it a lot easier and "oh my god they replaced nearly everyone" no longer lingers in the air.

And poor Chris Lee had to go through life with his hair like that for a year.

The previously bit replaced the "Today on Power Rangers" bits that opened up MMPR every day.

it kinda makes sense that the character writing would shift a little as the characters moved to other sentais; like how red racer was the leader so tj starts off generic and leader-y but then he switches to megablue who was more cool and cocky and carlos gets to be more compotent because megablack basically was the team leader, not megared

Unlike Go-Busters Kyurrangers had collaboration between the US and Japan. Also for as much as people say Go-Busters was specifically made for Power Rangers its may have been just random references like how Dekaranger used SPD's Swat mode at one point.

I didn't watch any of the Turbo episodes but I know one of the Rangers was a kid actor so it has to be the worst.

At least as far as toys are concerned there was a collaboration I think.

Depending on how the season after Kyuranger looks, Saban could theoretically just cap off Ninja Steel or tie it into the 9ranger adaptation.

Yeah aside from using phrases like "It's Morphin Time" and "Megazord" (which, by the way, is not the first time the word Zord has been used in Sentai) I'm not really seeing how Go-Busters was made with Power Rangers in mind as, to be perfectly honest, there's not a whole lot of usable footage in which a non-suited Japanese actor is not present in. While I personally liked the show, it's probably for the best they ended up skipping that one in the long run.
