Chewing up gears!

[BRENGAS]

Hi guys, iv recently fit an eazirun HOBBYWING motor and s.c MAX 6 Kit to my X Max 8s and tried using an alloy ebay motor mount from Ebay but when i try to use it, it just rips the pinion or spur to shreds, can anyone recommend any strong alternate gears that can take the power please. i have ordered a Bauhaus mount from US and still waiting for this to arrive as at the moment the mesh isnt 100% in line but only out of line by about 1mm or less,, will this make all the difference?? thanks in advance...

Which hobbywing? Something isn’t lining up. Go to wfo performance buy the mount and gears.
Post up some pictures.

Iv ordered the WFO mount , 8mm shaft and 1;5 30-33 gears, they are a lot bigger so hopefully giving me a better mesh, thanks for the advice, i struggle getting anything here in the UK, the aftermarket in the UK is crap for X Max, everything seems to be in the states. Iv only just found out you can put a belt conversion kit on it as well but only if your motor shaft is 8mm, mine is 5mm so cant go there unless anyone knows of a 5mm version??

Belt drives are a waste of time. Stick with the gears. Mod 1.5 wfo gears are bulletproof.

Yea cheers for that, iv seen a couple of "Belt killer" videos online and they don't seem to love them, iv ordered the WFO 1.5 gears and another mount from same company, iv also got coming a Bowhouse mount with great support on heavy landings too so should have everything i need to make it sing again soon, cheers for advice.
