Hiya people
I put a thread up about the 'Dead engine' got some great advise thanks, but what i'm on about is the gearing I used.It was a 24/40 on an MT and I tought it would be OK,ish but never dreamed of the effects it had.I used to run 10th scale off/on road cars and always got a bit of heat out of the motors and ESC's but to run gears like that on an MT was a little over the top! It was great at the start when I fired it up you could hear it struggle a bit and then when it hit mid revs it went like a rocket to top end!
,then after a few runs I bought it in and wow! you :nono:could fry an egg on the clutch bell!the heat was tremendous.Needless to say I will be putting the stock gears back on.
Is there any one out there that uses a different ratio that is good for acceleration and top end? If so can you advise me.
All the best.
